Everton have already introduced Roman Dixon to the Premier League this season, and now it looks as if fans have another talent to shout about.

Sean Dyche has made sure to give youngsters valuable experience in recent weeks during first-team training. The likes of Isaac Heath, Harrison Armstrong, George Pickford and a number of other academy players have all been called up.

Roman Dixon is another who’s been fancied by the Everton boss, making his debut against Tottenham Hotspur earlier on in the season.

It didn’t necessarily go to plan for him on that day in what was a 4-0 defeat against the Lilywhites, but it shows that Dyche isn’t afraid to turn to the Everton academy.

However, it appears that another teenager is making waves in the academy setup at Everton.

Omari Benjamin joined Everton in the summer after being deemed not good enough at Arsenal.

Interestingly, Benjamin has already left coaches impressed at Finch Farm with his intelligence and work rates, and he’s now adding more goals to his game.

The youngster scored a brace against Liverpool Under-21s recently, which led to Everton Under-21 boss Paul Tait praising Benjamin for his ‘outstanding’ display.

Footage of the goals scored by Benjamin have emerged on social media, and it’s safe to say that Everton fans are both excited and impressed.
