According to a report in the Liverpool Echo, Everton are set to loan out Ademola Lookman and that is exactly the right call by Sam Allardyce.

Allardyce clearly has his doubts over using Lookman, as he has had plenty of opportunity since arriving at Goodison Park.

Realistically, Everton look set for a mid-table spot, and there have been calls for Allardyce to start picking youngsters more regularly.

Allardyce has shown a willingness to put in the likes of Tom Davies and Jonjoe Kenny, but Lookman has been left on the sidelines.

The former Charlton Athletic man has made just two substitute appearances in the Premier League since Allardyce took charge, and a loan move is now best for all parties.

There is little point in Everton keeping Lookman, unless they intend to use him, as he is a player who needs first-team experience.

Lookman has a great deal of ability, but he is still a raw talent, and if Everton aren’t prepared to play him – they should be selfless and let another side benefit from his talents.
