Sigurdsson Why Cenk Tosun Can Make A Difference For Everton
Cenk Tosun may be new to Everton but one player who is already familiar with the Turkey international is Gylfi Sigurdsson.
The Iceland international has backed Tosun to revitalise the Toffees goal scoring form after witnessing what he is capable of first hand.
The Premier League outfit completed the Tosun’s £27million capture from Besiktas on Friday.
The transfer was head coach Sam Allardyce’s first since taking over as head coach in November.

Sigurdsson was quoted by the Liverpool Echo as saying: “Every good player who comes to the club is a positive and he is one of them.
“Hopefully he will play well for the club.
“I have played against him a couple of times for Iceland, so I know he is a good player. Hopefully, he will settle in quickly and hit the ground running.”
Tosun is expected to make his Everton debut in the Premier League against Tottenham at Wembley on Saturday.
The Toffees have scored just two goals in their last five games failing to win any of them.
The Turkey international scored a goal every 112.5 minutes in the Champions League this season, converting four times in the competition for the reigning Super Lip champions.
Tosun has a great conversion record, scoring 55 percent of goals from clear opportunities – 46.67 percent in the league.
