He joined the club as Everton earned a 0-0 draw at Tottenham on Saturday.
Only one goalkeeper has achieved more than 200 clean sheets in the Premier League.
Petr Cech , with 202, is the leader in the league's shut-outs by a considerable margin, recording 33 more than his closest rival David James.
The former Czech Republic international also holds the Premier League record for the highest percentage of clean sheets per games played, and most consecutive clean sheets.
