Austrian youngster inks Everton contract

Everton midfielder George Krenn has signed a pro deal.

The 17 year-old Austrian has penned a contract through to 2010 and told evertonTV: "I am very pleased to sign for Everton and I will do everything for the Club.

"I usually play for the under 18s but I want to get in the reserves - hopefully soon."

The 17-year-old has only been in England a few months but admits he is settling in well on Merseyside.

"I think the people are very polite and nice. My teammates try and help me and I am very pleased with the facilities and everything," said Krenn.

"I have learnt a lot off my teammates and things that I never learnt in Austria because the pace here is quicker."
