Everton boss Moyes delighted with business done for Bradford superkid George Green

Everton boss David Moyes is delighted with their deal for Bradford City junior George Green.

The Daily Star Sunday says he's pleased about getting his latest signing for an initial fee of £170,000.

Everton have agreed a deal with Bradford City which could eventually rise to £1.6million.

And Moyes would be delighted to pay it because it would mean Green had fulfilled his exciting potential.

Such was his reputation that he was also wanted by Tottenham, Arsenal, Glasgow Rangers and even Bayern Munich.

But Green will now become a full-time member of Everton's academy next summer when he is 16.

He is the latest product of Bradford's successful youth system which recently has produced Manchester United's Tom Cleverley, Aston Villa's Fabian Delph and Andre Wisdom at Liverpool.
