Cody joined Everton in August 2009 after impressing on trial earlier in the year.
 
The New York-born striker arrived from Carolina Dynamo, who play in the fourth tier of the American soccer pyramid.
 
He is the second player to arrive at Everton from the league this summer, following Anton Peterlin’s switch from Ventura County Fusion.

Having earned international honours at Under-15 and Under-18 level, 5ft 10 ins forward Arnaux played for Wake Forest University before making the switch to Dynamo earlier this year.

He scored 13 times in 16 games for the Dynamo before moving across the pond.
 
The striker linked up with Everton's reserve squad upon his arrival but was afforded a place on the subs' bench for the pre-season friendly at Blackpool in early August.
