Robles 'Privileged' To Have Played In Front Of Great Everton Fans

Joel Robles says he will remember each Everton match he played “with pride and honour” as he saluted the Club’s “great fans” for their support in his five seasons with the Blues.

Robles – who has signed for La Liga side Real Betis – made 65 appearances for Everton after joining from Atletico Madrid in 2013.

In a message addressed to the “Everton family” on his official Twitter page, Robles said he wanted to thank “every fan for making me feel like one of your own”.

“I feel privileged to have had the opportunity to wear the shirt of such a great Club like Everton and be able to play at Goodison Park in front of such great fans for the past five years,” the 28-year-old goalkeeper added.

“It has been five unforgettable seasons in which I have worked hard every day to improve on the pitch and represent the greatness of the Club off it.

“I want you all to know that I will always remember every game I have played for Everton with pride and honour. Also I would like to mention that I will always be grateful for the treatment I have received from the president, managers, coaching staff, teammates and club officials throughout my time at the Club.

“But, above all, I want to say ‘thank you’ to each and every one of you for making me feel like one of your own. #COYB.”
