New Everton signing Aiden McGeady was unveiled to the Goodison Park faithful before the Norwich game

Everton have announced the signing of Ireland winger Aiden McGeady from Spartak Moscow.

There had been speculation the 27-year-old former Celtic player would sign a pre-contract agreement with the Toffees but he will move to Merseyside immediately having agreed a permanent deal.

McGeady was paraded to supporters at Goodison Park prior to their Barclays Premier League game against Norwich.

McGeady has signed a four-and-a-half year deal with the Merseysiders after the clubs agreed an undisclosed fee.

McGeady spent six years with Celtic before moving to Russia for £9.5million in 2010.

The news sees Goodison boss Roberto Martinez finally land his man having been linked with him while at Wigan a year ago.
