Everton have reportedly offered promising young winger Korede Adedoyin a new contract in a bid to keep him at the club in the face of interest from elsewhere.

The 18-year-old, who has been invited by Nigeria to represent them at this month's Under-20 World Cup after initially playing for England youth, is out of contract next month but All Nigeria Soccer report that "a few clubs are snooping".

Adedoyin has been part of Everton's Finch Farm Academy since he was 10 and is now a regular in the U18s team for whom he scored 11 times in 17 games this past season, including a hat-trick against Newcastle United.
