There's a chance I posted something similar back in Jan so sorry if I'm repeating myself but here goes anyway with an AFCB view of Danjuma.

Ignore his stats the season we got relegated. He has a series of niggly injuries and, as the season was one long injury crisis, we ended up playing players when they weren't fit in quite a lot of games. So they numbers from that year are misleading. He needed some time to adapt to the English game but, by the time he was starting to look fully fit and ready to make a contribution, it was after lockdown and wasn't really the right time to throw him into a scrap for our lives. He didn't give off the impression of being that kind of player.

The man has an ego but credit to him, he often backs it up and, when we did go down and lots of players were sold on, he didn't have a tantrum. Unlike a certain Joshua King and his mysterious migraines and back aches that came on before kick off. Danjuma simply got on with it. That's when we saw the real player and the guy can finish. I know it was only the Championship but he was utterly ruthless, cutting in from a wide left forward position and scoring. The first season after relegation we were actually a mess on the pitch with terrible coaches in charge and a lot of poor performances, but along with a couple of others, he elevated us with his contribution. Without him we'd have been midtable.

You're essentially getting a wide forward who has more confidence and better natural finishing than most strikers.

When he went to Villareal, he proved he could do it at a higher level with his Champions League scoring, but apparently fell out with the coach. I think his ego may have ruffled some feathers.

If Dyche can get inside his head and make him feel loved, I think you've got an excellent player on your hands that could score quite a few for you this season. That's the only question I see about him. He 100% has the ability, pace and calmness on the ball to be a success at this level. He will need careful management though.

Good luck. Only, not at our expense please. Cheers.

Thanks for taking the trouble to post mate

[fandjango]

Welcome lad do us proud

 

[toffeemeister77]

I think he's going to be a decent option and provide some attacking quality we desperately need!

Welcome to Everton!

Another signing that looks like he improves us and adds some depth in a few positions. Not a true penny spent yet, We’ll take that but we need more. I’d love to see some outgoings

Still have 3 loan spots. We need to be clever and hopefully make use of them to improve the squad. not wasting them with pointless loans. Like vinagre and el ghazi.

Are these photos from today or January?

 

[chippy1722]

Never seen him play so have no idea if he’s any good or not so looking forward to seeing him.
My only concern is he is clearly a Thelwell signing as we wanted him before Dyche came, not sure how that will play out with Dyche’s formation plans.

Yes no point getting loans unless they will play or are proper cover for a first teamer.

He appears to be an eloquent chap, though he can do one with the Rod Hill celebration (if we ever get to see it).

 

[Scarecrow]

Dunno why Google swapped 'Hull' for 'Hill', but there we go..
