Everton Magazine - July 2016-17

En este número

In all my years of editing the official Club magazine, I have never known the page plan to change as much as this one has!

Each time we allocated space for a new signing… we signed another one!

It’s been a brilliant summer so far and it’s as exciting a pre-season as I can remember.

However, there was only one winner in the front cover stakes.

I conducted Wayne Rooney’s first ever interview for the Club magazine back in 2002 when the publication was still called the Evertonian and the venue for the sit-down conversation was a Portakabin at Bellefield!

So much has happened since then, for the Club, the player and the magazine… and it’s brilliant that all three of us are re-united in this month’s issue.

Michael Keane and Davy Klaassen also make their magazine debuts this month – and look out for the August issue that will carry in-depth interviews with Jordan Pickford, Sandro and anyone else who may board the good ship Everton!

Tim Howard features this month, too. Tim’s an ocean away from Goodison Park these days but he still keeps in touch with events at the Club, and he confirms to us that we have secured the services of one of England’s brightest goalkeepers.

And that's not all! Look out for features with Leon Osman, Everton Ladies' new Dutch signings and Under-23s duo Anton Donkor and Nathangelo Markelo.

I hope you’re enjoying the summer, I hope you enjoy this month’s Everton and I know you’re as excited as we are about the forthcoming campaign.
