Martinez Confirms Besic Arrival

Roberto Martinez has today confirmed Bosnia and Herzegovina international Muhamed Besic will be presented as an Everton player when the team return from Thailand next week.

Everton travelled to Thailand on Thursday afternoon and the 21-year-old has travelled with the squad to build his fitness.

Martinez said: “The next few days will allow Mo to meet the players, but more importantly it is an opportunity for him to get into optimum condition ahead of the new season.

“I am looking forward to introducing him to the Everton fans when we come back but first I would like to thank Ferencváros for the way in which they have approached the negotiations. They have been very understanding at this point and we have enjoyed a good working relationship.”

Martinez, meanwhile, takes a squad of 22 players to the Thai capital as he continues with his pre-season preparations.
