How Everton fans can watch Braiden Graham for Northern Ireland vs Georgia

Everton talent Braiden Graham is hoping to win his first Northern Ireland caps over the coming weeks.

The 18-year-old is one of the hottest young prospects emerging from Finch Farm at present.

Signed from Linfield in the summer of 2024, the versatile forward has been shining in Everton's academy system ever since.

Graham netted 21 goals and provided four assists in 30 total appearances for the Toffees' Under-21s last season.

David Moyes has featured him in numerous matchday squads this season, both in the Premier League and Carabao Cup.

And so, as he moves closer towards making his competitive Everton debut, the teenager could be about to do the same with Northern Ireland.

What television channels are showing Georgia vs Northern Ireland?

Domestic football around Europe has paused, as the UEFA Nations League group stages begin over these next couple of weeks.

Northern Ireland are competing in Nations League B, and are in group two alongside Hungary, Ukraine and Georgia.

It's the latter who they take on first, with the Green and White Army travelling to Tbilisi for a 5pm kick-off UK time on Friday evening.

Graham has been included in Northern Ireland's squad for these Nations League games, and will be hoping to earn his first senior cap during this break.

If that comes on Friday, Everton fans will have the opportunity to watch the youngster write his own Northern Ireland history.

BBC iPlayer, BBC Sport online, BBC Two, BBC Two Northern Ireland and BBC Two Wales are all showing Georgia against Northern Ireland live.

So, as Graham continues to progress and boost his profile, why do Everton need to take contract action on him ASAP?

When does Graham's Everton contract expire?

Few things sting a football club and its supporters more than seeing a superb young player slip through their fingers.

Graham is showing all the signs that he's destined for the top, and Everton won't want him to reach his potential with anyone else.

However, if they don't pull their fingers out soon, that could well become reality.

That's because Graham is only contracted with the Toffees until 30 June 2027, meaning he's now got just nine months left on his current deal.

Scouts from clubs across European football will be aware of this, and thus numerous teams will no doubt have a swoop in mind if a new Everton deal isn't sorted soon.

Perhaps a Northern Ireland debut could kick Everton's decision-makers into gear over the coming weeks then.
