Idrissa Gueye has completed his move from Everton to Paris Saint-Germain for a fee understood to be €32m (£29m).

The midfielder has sealed the transfer on a contract to 2023 after Everton rejected a £21.5m offer from PSG in January. Marco Silva had hoped to keep Gueye at Goodison Park this season but the player was determined to join the French champions.

“I wanted to give a new boost to my club career by joining Paris Saint-Germain, one of the most structured and ambitious sports projects in Europe,” Gueye told his new club’s website.

Everton have made a substantial profit on the 29-year-old Gueye, who signed from Aston Villa for £8m in 2016. The Senegal international played in France for Lille from 2008 to 2015.

Gueye was an integral member of the Teranga Lions squad that lost 1-0 to Algeria at the 2019 Total Africa Cup of Nations.
