Kurt Zouma Everton shirt number revealed

Right at the end of the transfer window with minutes to go on deadline day, Everton added Kurt Zouma on loan from Chelsea to further bolster the central defence corps after signing Yerry Mina earlier from Barcelona.

The defender will wear the iconic #5 for Everton this season, a number that has been worn by some of the greatest players in the Blues history, and also by some of the most ignominious as well.
