Everton have agreed a deal to bring Brazilian international Jo to Goodison Park on loan.

The Manchester City striker is set to move to Everton until the end of the season, bolstering manager David Moyes' striking options.

Officials from the two clubs met in the centre of Manchester on Saturday night to discuss the details of the move, Everton's first during the January transfer window.

Jo has now agreed personal terms with Everton and will arrived at the Club's Finch Farm training base on Monday to complete the loan move ahead of the 5pm transfer deadline.

The 21-year-old forward was signed by Mark Hughes from CSKA Moscow last summer for £18m.
He has made 12 starts for City, netting three goals.

A Brazilian international with three caps, he made his name by netting 30 goals from 50 starts in the Russian top flight for CSKA Moscow following his signing from homeland club Corinthians in 2006.

Moyes has made no secret of his desire to secure the signing of a striker, with Yakubu and James Vaughan sidelined for the remainder of the campaign and Louis Saha still recovering from a hamstring injury.

He will wear the number 11 shirt for the Toffees.

You class an £18M reject a "decent signing".

[Pyroka]

Thing is with Everton, they always bring the best out of players like Jo, who've had a bad run of games. They just... come out and perform for some reason lol.

[Immenseman]

Well David Moyes gets the most out of everyone.

Well he's barely had a chance to prove himself.

Can Man City call him back? If so, Everton have made a huge mistake.

[Minstrels]

Yeah lmao! :P

[Geraint]

It's probably a call-back after 2 months situation seeing as Everton have injuries.

[Jack.Lfc]

Who needs torres though? they have jo :'(:'(:'(

Sometimes clubs have gentlemen's agreements set to prevent recalling unless absolutely necessary.

Because were going to have a gentlemen's agreement with a league rival? Yawn.

[Pyroka]

Problem is, Man City will just keep him and won't accept any money cuz they've got quite enough ¬_¬

There is a considerable gap between you.

[Minstrels]

There is a considerable gap between you.
Nine points with a game in hand.

[JackBuddy]

Nine points with a game in hand.
Anyway my point is that this season I wouldn't realy call Everton a close rival.

[Minstrels]

Anyway my point is that this season I wouldn't realy call Everton a close rival.
Why? Nine points. Game in hand can bring it down to six. Playing Everton can bring it down to three.

[JackBuddy]

Why? Nine points. Game in hand can bring it down to six. Playing Everton can bring it down to three.
I'm just saying that come the end of the season I think the gap will be much bigger.

If we give up we wont have winning mentality, we aren't Spuds. We don't give up half way through a season.

Wouldn't it just be so sweet if Jo scored against Man City for Everton? I'd totally laugh.

Well you're obviously going to agree with that but I don't feel you have done enough in the transfer window to improve your defence, which could ultimately allow you to continue leaking goals.

He can't.
