According to the Mirror, Arsenal could agree a deal for Everton’s young centre-back Ryan Astley. The 16-year-old, who is regarded as one of the ‘greatest prospects’ by reserve team manager David Unsworth has yet to sign a professional deal with Everton and could be on the move as a result.
Arsenal have been monitoring his progress and may well procure his signature if the Toffees can’t tie him down for the long-term. Astley has made two appearances for Wales at u17 level and has turned out for the reserve team on occasion, but the Mirror believe his future will be at the Emirates Stadium.
