Everton youngster Katia Kouyate admits he is using Tom Cannon as an inspiration as he aims to attract the attention of Frank Lampard.
The 19-year-old from Manchester joined Everton’s Academy system aged eight and broke into the under-21s team two seasons ago, having featured regularly for the club's under-18s side.
Kouyate put pen-to-paper on a new two-year contract at the end of September after enjoying a taste of first-team training under Lampard and his management team during the international break earlier that month.
