Dixon joined Everton's youth academy at Under-12 level and had worked his way up to the Under-21s by the end of 2022-23.
A quick and powerful full-back, he was an England youth international at U20 level when he signed a new three-year contract with the Club in June 2024 and within weeks unexpectedly found himself in the first team's starting XI.
With Seamus Coleman and Nathan Patterson out injured and Ashley Young suspended, the 19-year-old Dixon was pitched into the senior side in a daunting Premier League fixture at Tottenham and acquitted himself well in what was an otherwise humbling 4-0 defeat.
Surprisingly overlooked until the 79th minute by Sean Dyche in the League Cup tie against League Two Doncaster a few days later, Roman was eventually selected again in the next round against Southampton but then had to be patient for future first-team opportunities.
