Says he will undergo a 5 day trial at Everton in July. Will travel with the reserves to a trainingscamp in Scotland.

Excellent news, if true. Araz Abdullyaev has also been at Finch Farm since yesterday (after having visa problems), where the medical and coaching staff will run the rule over him, so we're active in the wonderkid market.

Is Everton commonly referred to as "Liverpool's second club" in your press? This reminds me of that Shankly quote about the Liverpool reserves and generally pisses me off...

To the ones who are in actually the know that Everton are from Liverpool, yes we are referred to as the second club.

Tbh, I don't have a fcuking clue mate. He's very highly rated over here though, that I do know. Regarded as one of the biggest prospect in the Dutch youth academies.

Well, i'm fairly sure the reserves are going to scotland, which I dont think is common knowledge, so the journalist's definately done his research.

And WOOOO, he's a winger.

My Google Chrome translates that into:

Bob Schepers (18) relocated possible to Everton. The talent of Cambuur Leeuwarden, just passed his exam gym, running five days in July as a test player with the second club of Liverpool.

On the first day will Schepers a tour through training accommodation and stadium, then he left with half of the Toffees for a training camp to Scotland.

Should not be a transfer, then playing for next season Schepers Jong FC Groningen. He continues by grouping the Cambuur Groningen has available for the first team of the first Divisie Leeuwarden.

Sickening to hear that.

In Friesland, where football just is being watched, they may think that Everton is the 2nd club in Liverpool; in Groningen, where football is our life en where we love real 'people's clubs', we don't!

Thanks, mate. So it looks like he is going to your place, unless we and he take up an option for him to join our academy/reserves?

Yes, that's correct. He is traveling with the Everton-reserves to Scotland. It's up to your club: you've got the option to buy this guy. When you don't want to, he's ours!
