Everton landed the player from Chelsea last year and he has since settled in well
Everton midfielder Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall is ‘one of the signings of the summer’, says pundit Stephen Warnock. The 27-year-old has caught the eye in the middle of the park this season. He is under contract at the Hill Dickinson Stadium until June 2030.
Everton midfielder Kieran Dewsbury-Hall catching the eye
Everton signed Dewsbury-Hall from Chelsea last summer. He was brought in to bolster their midfield department. The Nottingham-born man has since injected more quality into their options in the middle of the park.
Dewsbury-Hall, who is yet to have a cap for England, has made 23 appearances in all competitions this season. He has chipped in with six goals and five assists. Prior to his switch, he struggled for game time at Stamford Bridge and his career had stalled.
He has got himself back on track with the Toffees and he will be feeling confident right now. The Leicester City academy graduate went on to play 129 games for the Foxes during his time at the King Power Stadium before he left for London. He was also loaned out as a youngster to Blackpool and Luton Town in the Football League to get some experience under his belt and to boost his development.

Ex-Liverpool man Warnock has said, as per BBC Sport: "You have to look at their recruitment and the players they bought in during the summer - it has been brilliant. Dewsbury-Hall got a goal against Burnley. I think he has been arguably one of the signings of the summer.
"You need workhorses in the midfield who also provide quality and get you goals. They just have a sprinkling of game-changers with Iliman Ndiaye and players like that but they also have a strong backbone and goalkeeper as well. They have got the ingredients to get over the line. The big thing is turning their home form into more victories and not rely so much on their away form. If they do that I think they could sneak in."
