Everton boss Roberto Martinez says Brentford is the right loan move for young striker Conor McAleny.

McAleny made the switch last week.

Martinez told the Liverpool Echo: "I still think on top of that you need to get that competitive edge and competitive football.

"That is why Conor McAleny is going to join Brentford on loan and those sort of experiences are what you need at the end of a really good development programme to bridge that gap into the first-team."
