DONE DEAL? Everton to welcome Charlton youngster Ademola Lookman

Everton are ready to welcome Charlton Athletic youngster Ademola Lookman.

The Sun says they have wrapped up the signing of Lookman.

Lookman is set to be Ronald Koeman's first signing of the January window in a £10million move from Charlton.

He has been by far the Addicks' best player since breaking into the first team last season and has gone on to make 48 appearances since making his debut away to MK Dons in November 2015.

Lookman arrived at Charlton's academy in 2014 from non-league side Waterloo FC and has since gone on to represent England at both Under-19 and Under-20 level.

It's believed the wideman – who can also play as a striker – chose Goodison Park after being assured of first-team football after Yannick Bolasie picked up an injury ruling him out for the rest of the season.
