Everton under-21 boss Paul Tait has revealed that a number of his side will head out on loan in January and believes a pathway to first-team football now exists at the club.
During the summer, the young Blues allowed Lewis Warrington, Lewis Gibson, Nathan Broadhead, Lewis Dobbin, Ellis Simms, Ryan Astley and Harry Tyrer to all depart on loan in order to gain more first-team experience.
Tait himself was promoted during the summer following the exit of David Unsworth as the club’s under-23 boss and Academy director. The former forward became the club’s first under-21 head coach, having stepped up from his role as under-18s boss, where he had held the reins for the past five years.
