Matthew Kennedy is determined to make it at Everton.
The 19-year-old is currently midway through a six-month loan spell with Scottish Championship outfit Hibernian, where he has so far made four starts and three substitute appearances.
"Alan Stubbs asked me to move up on loan when he first joined as manager," the young Scot told evertonfc.com. "I knew I was going to go out on loan this season but I wasn't sure where and I didn't want to rush into anything.
"But after speaking with Roberto [Martinez], we decided it would be the best move for me because I know the way Alan works and he knows me, which was good for everyone.
"I don't think I'd have come back up to Scotland if it wasn't for Alan and he was a massive factor in me joining Hibernian on loan."
