Everton young winger Stanley Mills joins training camp ahead of Aston Villa clash
Young winger Stanley Mills has joined first-team training for Everton ahead of their Premier League fixture against Aston Villa, according to Liverpool Echo.
The 18-year-old has recently signed a three-year contract with the Merseyside club which would keep him at Goodison Park till the summer of 2025.
As per the latest report, Mills joined the training session after an impressive performance for the Everton U23 side in the previous campaign.
Good signs
Everton had a history of turning young talent into world beaters as they’ve done with the likes of Wayne Rooney who ended up becoming a legend of Manchester United after graduating from the Toffees academy.
Not only the club but even the current manager Frank Lampard is famous for enhancing the quality of the youngsters as he did during his days at the Derby and then at Chelsea where he turned the likes of Mason Mount, Tammy Abraham and Reece James into first-team members.
Therefore, the Goodison Park-faithful will be hoping to see the former Chelsea legend turning Mills like he has done in the past with many youngsters and it remains to be seen whether he will be able to do that or not.
Mills joined Everton roughly four years back and signed his first professional contract with the Merseyside club last year.
He had an excellent season last time around where he managed to score six times and provided four assists while representing the Everton U23s side in the 25 matches in Premier League 2 [Transfermarkt].
