French International joins Everton from Leicester City

Everton have signed France Under-23s international forward Noémie Mouchon on a free transfer from Leicester City.

The 23-year-old becomes Everton’s first addition of the summer transfer window and follows the announcements that long-serving captain Megan Finnigan has penned a new contract, while the Club have activated a one-year option for Aurora Galli and permanent transfer of fellow midfielder Zara Kramžar after her Blues loan spell last season.

Mouchon began her career at childhood club Lille before making the move to Reims following a prolific four years in northern France.

A stellar season at Reims saw the attacker claim the Premiere Ligue Player of the Month trophy in April 2024, with Mouchon’s sharp-shooting for France’s youth sides on the international stage seeing her become one of Europe’s hottest prospects.

A move to the WSL beckoned as Mouchon made the switch to Leicester City in July 2024, reuniting with Amandine Miquel, who managed Mouchon at Reims.

Now in L4, Everton’s newest recruit expressed her desire to succeed in royal blue.

“I feel really excited to start with the team and this new club,” Mouchon told evertontv.

“I am the type of player who can bring something on the pitch. I am a fast player and I love to score goals, so I can't wait.

“I just want to score a lot with Everton. That's my only objective.”
