The 29-year-old underwent a medicine before moving and he will join David Moyes’ squad in the immediate vicinity.

He will hope that moving will bring his career back to life after fighting MAN City regularly last season.

And what better motivation to imitate than two of her idols by taking your old number at Everton.

According to Telegraph, Geralish will wear the shirt No. 18 in the brand new Hill Dickinson Stadium.

It is the same number worn by English football icons Wayne Rooney and Paul Gascoigne in the club.

In 2020, Geralish, who is often compared to Gascoigne for his playstyle and his antics outside the field, opened his heroes.

He admitted: “I would like to be compared to Gazza.

“He is an absolute icon. Together with Wayne Rooney, he was probably the biggest English players in the last 20, 30 years.

“I know there was a lot of good players, but they are my top Two. Gazza would be the first.

“I would like to be like him, as he played football with such joy, and everyone who saw it could see it. I want to do that.

“One of the biggest compliments is that people say:” They make me happy to see football “.”

Grialish now appears in Gascoigne and Rooney’s footsteps in Everton with his new shirt number.

When Rooney spread in immediate fame around the turn of the century, he moved 18 to the back of his shirt in Goodison Park.

He wore the digits from 2001 to 2004 before moving to Manchester United and created a legacy as No. 10.

In a strange connection, Rooney also became Gascoigne No. 18 of the club.

Gascigne wore the number on his shirt in his two seasons in Everton from 2000 to 2001.

First meeting

Geralish hit his Idol Gascoigne for the first time two years ago after winning North Macedonia in England.

The three lions won 7-0 and talked to talk sport after the game. He revealed what was said between the couples.

“I only asked him for a photo,” said Grialish to Talksport.

“He is an absolute icon, and that’s the first time that I met him.

“I have seen in the past that he sometimes said good words, and I just said ‘thank you’ for these nice words.

“It is an absolute pleasure to meet someone like that.”
