Signs with Everton O'Brien has completed a transfer to Everton from Lyon, according to his new club. Impact O'Brien has finally made his highly anticipated transfer, as he is now moving to the Premier League to join Everton on a four-year contract. This is a huge move for the Toffees, with the Irish international being one of the more highly thought of young defenders. He started in all 27 appearances for Lyon last campaign, notching 12 interceptions, 22 tackles and 96 clearances in the defense to go along with six goal contributions. He is likely to compete for starting time immediately, probably seeing regular time even if he is left in a rotational role.
