Everton poised to sign Argentine starlet

Everton are reportedly close to sealing the signing of Tomas Andrade.

It is understood that the Premier League club are on the verge of wrapping up a deal for the 19-year-old River Plate midfielder, who has been training with the Toffees this summer.

Andrade, who scored against Everton in the Dallas Cup back in March, is set to join Roberto Martinez’s side on loan with a view to making it a permanent deal.

Manager Martinez said: “Tomas is a very talented young man. He has raw, natural talent to use in the attacking play.

“He can play between the lines, he is left-footed, he’s has a very, very interesting profile.”
