Jean-Phillipe Gbamin joins CSKA on loan

CSKA Moscow have completed the loan signing of Everton midfielder Jean-Phillipe Gbamin. The 26-year-old Ivorian has signed a short-term deal until the end of the season.

Gbamin is recovering from a series of injuries that have seen him manage just six appearances for Everton since joining the English Premier League side in 2019 from Mainz. However, the Cote d’Ivoire international has 10 senior caps having represented France at junior levels right through to the under-21s, and has a wealth of experience in France and Germany.
