We wish Schneiderlin 'all the best for the future' - Ancelotti
Midfielder Morgan Schneiderlin has joined French side Nice from Everton for an undisclosed fee.
Schneiderlin, 30, joined the Toffees from Manchester United in January 2017 for a fee rising to £24m.
The France international played 88 times for the Premier League club, scoring one goal.
Nice, managed by ex-Arsenal and France midfielder Patrick Vieira, finished fifth in Ligue 1, which ended early because of the coronavirus pandemic.
Everton thanked Schneiderlin and wished him "every success for the future".
"He had injuries but in the time he played, he played well. Everyone in the club is happy for what he did as a professional here and everyone wants to wish him the best," said manager Carlo Ancelotti.
"He had the desire to go back to France and we let him, he had the possibility to go there, so we wish him all the best for the future."
