Everton have signed Senegal midfielder Idrissa Gueye on a four-year deal from second-tier Aston Villa, the Premier League club said on Tuesday. The 26-year-old, who joined Villa from French side Lille last season, made 38 appearances for the Midlands team, who were relegated from England's top-flight last season. I have played a season with Aston Villa which was a hard season but I think my style is good for the Premier League." No financial details were disclosed but British media estimated the deal was worth about seven million pounds ($9.33 million). The Senegal international made 134 appearances for Lille, and helped the club win the Ligue 1 title in 2011.
