Everton fans react on Twitter as Kieran Dowell is sold to Norwich City

Kieran Dowell has today signed permanent terms with ending his association with Everton.

The young attacker has spent time on loan at Nottingham Forest, Derby County and Wigan Athletic.

The 22-year-old has been allowed to leave Goodison Park, joining the Canaries for an undisclosed fee.

He joined the Latics in January having fallen out of favour under Derby boss Phillip Cocu.

Dowell leaves Goodison Park after making five first-team appearances and now begins a new chapter in his career.

The youngster was a product of the youth academy at Everton but clearly felt his chances of first-team football would be higher elsewhere.

Following the announcement made earlier today, Everton fans have been discussing the deal on Twitter.

It would seem some are unhappy at Dowell being allowed to leave, without earning a real chance to shine at the club.

Everton finished 12th in 2019/20, leading to many supporters growing disgruntles with some of the club’s more senior players.

The Toffees have a proud history of utilising youth and here is a selection of tweets from Everton fans as Dowell departs for good.
