First pro deal for Ebere

Everton Under-18s forward Coby Ebere has signed his first professional contract with the club, a three-year deal that will run until the summer of 2025.

The German-born player has been with the Blues' Academy since the age of 18 and is described on evertonfc.com as "a fast, skilful and powerful attacker" who "predominantly operates from the wing but is also comfortable playing as a central striker."

Coby scores a goal in this Everton clip showing a number of goals. Can anyone comment on the kid named Halid? His goals are right after Demari Gray's.

Jimmy,

That would be Halid Djankpata, a lad who's been coming through with the U18s and has recently been elevated to the U21s.

He can score goals, which I always think is good in a game of football. He came on as a late sub against West Ham U21s a couple of weeks back and rifled in a superb strike to put Everton in front.

Of course, in his development, he spent 5 months out with an injury to his medial collateral ligament, which seems just par for the course of our youngsters.

He turned 17 back in April but is still on a Scholarship, with no sign of a professional contract yet.
