Everton have officially completed the signing of Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall from Chelsea for an undisclosed fee, marking a significant boost to their midfield ahead of the 2025/26 Premier League campaign.
The 26-year-old midfielder, who joined Chelsea from Leicester City in 2024, now makes the switch to Goodison Park after a short but eventful spell at Stamford Bridge. Despite fierce competition for places at Chelsea, Dewsbury-Hall showed glimpses of brilliance in limited appearances and impressed with his energy, ball-carrying ability, and tactical awareness.
Everton boss Sean Dyche has reportedly been a long-time admirer of Dewsbury-Hall’s dynamic style and leadership qualities. The move is seen as a major step in Dyche’s ongoing project to rebuild Everton with a focus on hardworking, technically sound players who can thrive under pressure.
Speaking after the announcement, Dyche said: “Kiernan is a player with fantastic character and strong Premier League experience. He fits the profile of what we want at this football club — passionate, driven, and willing to work hard for the team. We’re excited to have him.”
Dewsbury-Hall also expressed his excitement at joining the Toffees: “Everton is a massive club with a rich history and passionate fans. I can’t wait to get started and contribute to what the manager is building here. I’m ready to give my all for the badge.”
The move signals Everton’s intent to reinforce their midfield depth following several high-profile departures. With pre-season preparations in full swing, fans will be eager to see Dewsbury-Hall in action as the Blues aim for a stronger finish in the upcoming season.
Further details about the contract length and fee remain undisclosed, but sources suggest it’s a long-term deal with performance-related bonuses.
