Everton fans back signing of Ashley Young as long as one condition is met

Everton are close to signing former Aston Villa and Manchester United defender Ashley Young as the 38-year-old is set to undergo a medical today.

The versatile Premier League veteran has been a free agent since his contract expired at Villa Park in his second stint with the Midlands club.

He began his career with Watford and the move for the top-flight winner, who has predominantly played as a full-back in recent seasons, would see a reunion with Everton manager Sean Dyche who played with Young during his stint at Vicarage Road.
