Charlton's Ademola Lookman has joined Premier League giants Everton despite only making 49 appearances for the club.
Lookman's £11million transfer was completed this week and the 19-year-old penned a four and a half year deal with his new club.
"I am very grateful to everyone at Charlton for the opportunity I have been given," said Lookman.
"I’ve loved every minute of being here but when the chance to join Everton came in, it wasn’t one I could turn down.
“I’ll always remember my first game at The Valley and the support I received from the fans. I really hope the lads go on to achieve promotion this season. The players, the fans and everyone at the club deserves it.”
Charlton boss Karl Robinson added: "Ademola is an incredible talent and has been a joy to work with during my short stint at the club. After a rapid rise through our academy system, he has been on the radar of Premier League clubs for some time. “The club rejected a substantial bid for him in the summer and to Ademola’s great credit, he really knuckled down and underlined his potential."Kevin Foley has also left the Addicks after his short-term deal ended while Robinson has signed midfielder Jake Forster-Caskey from Brighton on a two and a half year deal.
Forster-Caskey said: “I’m delighted to join Charlton, I’ve been going out on loan for the last year, so I’m delighted to finally get a home. The club has got ambitions, so have I, and so does the manager.
"We’re all looking up. I want to get back to the Championship and so does this club. It’s a huge club and I just can’t wait to get started.”
