Yannick Bolasie has become Everton's fourth summer signing after putting pen to paper on a five-year contract at Goodison Park.The winger has joined the Toffees in a deal worth up to £30million after informing Palace of his wish to move to Merseyside last week.Bolasie, who came off the bench in Saturday's 1-0 defeat by West Brom, joins Ashley Williams, Idrissa Gueye and Maarten Stekelenburg as one of manager Ronald Koeman's new recruits. 
Speaking to evertontv, Bolasie said: 'I'm looking forward to putting on the Everton shirt. This is a big club and I know all about it from having played against them over the years.
'For me, it was a no-brainer to come here. But now that I've come to Everton, the job is not done. I've got to work hard and feel my way in. I'm ready and up for the challenge.
'It's not about the money for me. It's about looking at the ambition of the club and where they are trying to get to. I just like to play football.'
Bolasie, who scored 11 times in the past two seasons, received a warm welcome from the home fans as he came on against the Baggies last weekend.
But after the 1-0 loss, Eagles boss Alan Pardew revealed that the 27-year-old's 'heart and soul' was elsewhere as he closed in on a move to Everton.
Boalsie added: 'I just like to play football and it's going to be really interesting to learn from someone like Ronald Koeman, who was obviously a top centre-back as a player and he played with some of the best players in the world.
'The club has made good signings, players like Ashley Williams who I know well - and I know that I've joined a club that not only has lots of quality players but one that produces lots of quality players, like Ross Barkley, as well.
'This season is going to be very interesting and I'm looking forward to being part of it here at Everton.'
Speaking about his newest addition, Koeman said: 'Yannick is a player who has been a long time on my radar because he's the type of winger I like – fast, strong and he can play different positions in the forward line. He's a really good signing for the club.
'At 27, he's a good age and he has experience in the Premier League. He will give strength to the team and I'm very pleased to have Yannick as part of what we are trying to build here at Everton.'
Bolasie could make his Everton debut against West Brom at the Hawthorns on Saturday, with Koeman's men looking for their first win after an opening day draw with Tottenham at Goodison.
