Everton are growing increasingly confident of singing Feyenoord wonderkid Joshua Zirkzee.
The 16-year-old is wanted by Arsenal and Manchester United - but the Toffees believe they are in pole position to land the talented youngster.
The move for Zirkzee - who scored 33 goals in 27 games last season - is part of a mission to improve the club's youth ranks as the Merseysiders build for the future.
Sportsmail revealed last week how Everton were closing in on Newcastle starlet Lewis Gibson.
