Landon Donovan to make Everton return

Landon Donovan has agreed a deal with Everton to rejoin the club on loan in January.

The Los Angeles Galaxy forward had a successful spell at Goodison Park in 2010.

The USA international will link up with the squad on January 4 and return to America on February 25.

"I am delighted that we have managed to get Landon back. He will give us some good experience over January and February," said manager David Moyes.

"He did well for us when he was over two years ago and hopefully will return with those same qualities.

"His season has just finished and like last time we need him to hit the ground running because the games come thick and fast at this time of year."

The Toffees host Norwich City in the Premier League on Saturday.
