Everton have seen a number of their young prospects begin to make a name for themselves this season.

David Moyes has had to rely on some of his youngsters from the academy to make up his matchday squads recently.

It has been a season which has seen Everton riddled with injuries across the squad.

Perhaps the brightest prospect from the academy departed the club in January, with Harrison Armstrong signing for Derby County on loan.

But there are still a number of players at Finch Farm who are catching the eye from the U21 and U18 sides.

And there is one in particular who the coaches believe is going to be a future star on Merseyside.

Everton coaches are excited about Martin Sherif’s potential

With Dominic Calvert-Lewin out through injury, Moyes has had to rely on his youngsters to supplement their striker injury crisis.

Martin Sherif has been called upon numerous times now to make up the numbers in the matchday squad.

However, the Dutch striker is expected to have a much big career than just watching on from the bench.

According to ESPN NL, those inside the club are expecting people around the league to know the name of Sherif very soon.

Leighton Baines is said to be a big fan of the 18-year-old striker who has shone in Everton’s U21s side.

Other coaches at the club have been impressed with Sherif’s attitude and are expecting him to make some big leaps forward technically over the near future.

Beto has been in sensational form for Everton of late, but Sherif is a player the coaches at Finch Farm feel could really become a star.

With Armando Broja now back in Everton training, it feels as if a potential debut for Sherif this season may be becoming more and more unlikely.

Martin Sherif scored for Everton U21s on Friday

After making the squad for the away game against Brentford on Wednesday night, it would have been expected that Sherif jetted off to Abu Dhabi with Moyes.

However, Sherif has remained in England with the U21s where he has gone on to score once again on Friday afternoon.

The 18-year-old was able to get an hour’s worth of football under his belt against Aston Villa as he helped secure three points with a goal in the 2-1 win.

Some big decisions await Everton this summer in regards to their strikers and it seems as if those inside the club are rooting for Sherif to make the step up into the first team.;
