Green signs first professional contract

Lyndon Lloyd , 2 January, 3comments | Jump to most recent

Teenage prospect George Green has signed a professional contract with Everton, one that ties him to the Blues until the summer of 2015.

Originally picked up as a 15 year-old from Bradford City, Green is now a regular member of the Blues' U18 side, has already featured for the U21s and has represented England at U16 and U17 levels.

As soon as I signed for Everton from Bradford I was hoping I'd get to a stage where I earned a pro contract," he told evertonfc.com. "I've done that, so it feels really good to be honest.

“It's been much harder at Everton than I thought, a much tougher challenge. I'm playing with better players now and it's been really enjoyable.

“I just hope to push on now and hopefully earn another contract again in the future. I can't wait to get going.”
