Everton have completed the signing of Ecuadorian midfielder Segundo Castillo on a season-long loan from Red Star Belgrade. The 26-year-old passed a medical at the club yesterday and becomes the club's second signing of the summer following the arrival of the Danish defender Lars Christian Jacobsen earlier this week. Castillo is a defensive midfielder who played for El Nacional and El Deportivo Espoli in Ecuador before heading for Eastern Europe.
Everton now await international clearance for the player ahead of tomorrow's visit of Portsmouth. "I know that Everton are a big club who have a history of playing in important competitions like the Uefa Cup," Castillo said. "I hope I can do my best for the team."
Everton are also monitoring the Internazionale midfielder Victor Obinna with a view to a loan move. Obinna is a Nigerian international colleague of Goodison Park forward Victor Anichebe and only joined Inter earlier this week, but the Italian champions have decided to send him out immediately on loan.
