Who could be a star of the future at Everton?

With 2017 beginning, a new year brings new hope to plenty of the young players at clubs in the United Kingdom.

So which young players at Everton might be worthy of getting a chance in the first-team in the next 12 months?

Here are three options for Ronald Koeman to consider…

Kieran Dowell

The 19-year-old has already made his first-team breakthrough with the Toffees, featuring in two games for the club last season after initially making his debut in December 2014.

He has continued to impress in the Everton under-23s recently and plays in a style that suits Koeman’s way of thinking.

He should be on the cusp of regular football soon.

The Irish midfielder has been the star of the show for Everton’s youngsters so far this season. He has four goals and two assists for the side in 11 games in the Premier League 2.

The 20-year-old is a talented midfield star and should be given a chance to shine at Goodison Park in the weeks to come.

Callum Connolly

Everton’s main concerns this season have been in defence. The club remain sloppy at the back and some fresh blood might make a difference.

The 19-year-old local lad can play anywhere along the back-four and might be deserving of a first-team opportunity.
