Young forward joins Everton but it is not Marseille ace
Everton have been very active in the transfer market to the surprise of many supporters who were expecting only exits in the opening few weeks of the summer transfer window.
After a truly traumatic campaign that had nearly seen the Blues relegated again after those two points deductions and with finances still a mess, all the talk had been about players leaving not joining.
Instead, the Toffees moved quickly to secure the return on loan for another season of Leeds winger Jack Harrison, and then added midfielder Tim Iroegbunam from Aston Villa.
There were then two exits but not the expected ones as Lewis Dobbin went the other way to Iroegbunam and then Ben Godfrey, who had refused a new contract, left for Italy.
In addition, there had been plenty of talk about Everton adding another new signing with Iliman Ndiaye expected to become a Blues player soon.
However, the club have added another attacking talent to their ranks with the news that 18-year-old Omari Benjamin has signed a contract.
Benjamin has joined the Toffees from after having had a successful spell with Everton last season when Arsenal let him go.
It seems unlikely that the youngster will go into the first-team squad - at least not straight away - and probably represents one for the future we hope.
Talking of young talents who might well develop and become outstanding players, the Blues are also being strongly linked with a move for Millwall starlet Josh Stephenson.
Another 18-year-old, Stephenson - who has been compared to Jarrad Branthwaite - can operate either in defence or midfield and could offer some useful versatility too.
Anyway, this is of course just a rumour at the moment and there is nothing concrete to the story as yet but it follows earlier stories about young players and Everton.
Regardless, with all these reports doing the rounds nearly every day, it seems as though the club could remain pleasingly active in the transfer market as the search by all Premier League clubs for new additions hots up.
