The official Everton website has confirmed that Vadis Odjidja-Ofoe has been refused permission to join Everton.
FIFA have today refused to ratify the loan transfer of Vadis Odjidja-Ofoe to Everton from Club Brugge.
The decision comes despite both the Football Association and Premier League giving their full support to the loan agreement and Everton lodging the relevant signed paperwork in advance of the international transfer deadline on August 31.
An Everton spokesman confirmed the Club will consider all available options before making any further comment.
