Paul Tait has spoken of his pride after Tom Cannon made his Everton first-team debut and is hoping more chances will fall the way of the club’s youngsters in the coming months.
Cannon impressed in his first season as a fully-fledged Everton under-23 player last year, scoring eight goals in 23 appearances to finish as the team's leading marksman. He has continued his impressive form this season.
And after bagging nine goals for Tait's side, Cannon was handed his first-team debut during last week’s Carabao Cup defeat to Bournemouth when he replaced Neal Maupay with nine minutes remaining.
