Donny van de Beek has agreed to join Everton on loan from Manchester United for the rest of the season.
With only one Premier League loan space left open after bringing in Anwar El Ghazi from Aston Villa earlier this month, Everton have been keeping their options open over further potential recruits ahead of the January transfer window closing on Monday night.
However, the ECHO understands that Van de Beek has chosen the Blues over Crystal Palace after Frank Lampard pushed hard for the player over the past 24 hours.
