The former German under 21 international had been released by FC Koln and was free to find a new club.

He will wear the number 33 shirt at Goodison Park and will deputise for Tim Howard after Richard Wright left for West Ham earlier this summer.

Wessels told evertonfc.com, ‘I am excited to be here in England. It is the first time I have played for a club outside of Germany but the English Premier League is a very exciting league and I am looking forward to my time here at Everton.’

Everton’s Scottish goalkeeper Iain Turner is still suffering from a groin injury whereas John Ruddy, who has been on the bench for the first three games of the season may well be loaned out for more experience.
