Marouane Fellaini's agent has confirmed that the Belgian midfielder sealed a move to Everton before the transfer window closed.
Tottenham, Newcastle, West Ham and Everton were all reported to be locked in a battle to land the highly-rated Standard Liege star.
But it is now Everton won the race and sealed Fellaini's signature on a five-year contract in a club record deal.
Everton have agreed to pay €16million (£13m) - also Belgian transfer record - for the 20-year-old international.
Eveton looked to have worked right up to the deadline on Monday and successfully brokered a deal with Standard's vice-president Luciano D'Onofrio.
Although Standard have revealed that they had been in talks with Everton for a number of weeks.
