Forshaw, like Davies, progressed through the Club's Academy but only went on to play once for Everton's first team.
“Seeing Tom come through is brilliant for the club and for the city," Forshaw said.
“I’ve watched him closely and he’s done really well. He’s tenacious, can get about the ball and he’s got good energy.
“It’s great to see because Everton have always prided themselves on bringing young players through and I pleased for him.”
