Everton have completed the signing of Brazil winger Bernard on a four-year deal from Shakhtar Donetsk.

The 25-year-old, who has won 14 caps for his country since 2014, links up with new Toffees boss Marco Silva at Goodison Park to become their fourth signing of the summer, and will wear number 20 for the club.

Bernard began his professional career at Atletico Mineiro in 2010 before joining the Ukrainian champions three years later, where he won the Ukrainian Premier League, Ukrainian Super Cup and Ukrainian Cup three times each.

At international level, he was also part of the Brazil team who won the 2013 FIFA Confederations Cup and played for his country at their home World Cup in 2014.

“I chose Everton because of all the things I had heard about Marco Silva and after speaking to him I was happy with what he said to me,” the midfielder said. “The manager made me feel confident about playing here. He has achieved really good things at other clubs.

“Everton is a club with a great structure and a lot of tradition. When I found out about this opportunity and what the manager wanted out of me, I was happy.
