Everton have some very talented youngsters on their books and impressive striker Fraser Hornby will hope to be the next prospect to force his way into the first-team squad.

The highly rated striker is still eligible to play for Everton’s U18 side, for whom he has hit three goals in as many appearances this season.

In addition, Hornby has also been involved for the Toffees at U23 level, and scored in the defeat to Leicester City recently.

General view as the inside of Goodison Park is seen prior to the Premier League match between Everton and Watford at Goodison Park on November 5, 2017 in Liverpool, England.

A Scotland U19 international, Hornby made his first-team debut for Everton earlier this month as he started up front in the Europa League victory against Apollon Limassol, and he will hope for further opportunities to impress in the near future.

Hornby was previously an attacking midfielder but has developed into a very exciting striking prospect since making the switch to Everton and he is very highly rated within the club.

General view outside the stadium prior to the Premier League match between Everton and Huddersfield Town at Goodison Park on December 2, 2017 in Liverpool, England.

The likelihood is that Hornby will continue to play for Everton’s U23 side for the remainder of the current campaign before hoping to become increasingly involved with the first-team squad from next season.
