Thomas Gravesen has returned to Everton on a season-long loan from Celtic, just over two years after his shock move to Real Madrid.
The 31-year-old Dane was always a favourite of the Goodison Park faithful but since quitting Merseyside, his career has endured somewhat of a downturn in fortune.
Everton boss David Moyes has been in the market for a midfielder ever since his move for Manuel Fernandes from Benfica collapsed at the weekend.
Gravesen, who never really established himself at Celtic, is delighted to be back.
"I am really looking forward to coming back to Everton, it is a chance to play top-flight football in the Premier League again," he said.
