Everton hand scholarship forms to son of a gun Stanley Mills | OneFootball

Everton have handed midfielder Stanley Mills scholarship forms.

The midfielder is the son of former England fullback Danny Mills.

Mills joined Everton as a 14-year-old and his father revealed last year that director of football Marcel Brands keeps a keen eye on the talent coming through the ranks at Finch Farm.

“I've been fortunate enough to meet him several times, sit down and have a chat with him," Mills told Football Insider.

“I'm very impressed with him, he's across everything, I guarantee it. I've been down at Finch Farm where he's been watching the under-15s, watching the under-17s, watching the under-18s.

“He's across everything, yeah. It's his job but as a technical director he's looking for talent not just from abroad, from the Premier League or whatever, he's looking within as well."

Luke Butterfield, midfielder, Eli Campbell, defender, Katia Kouyate ,forward, Mathew Mallon, defender, Stanley Mills, midfielder, Isaac Price, midfielder, Thierry Small, defender, Jak Stewart, goalkeeper, Reece Welch, defender, Charlie Whitaker, midfielder.
