What we know as Everton give Jamel Beggs contract shot weeks after Tottenham exit
Beggs is an 18-year-old midfielder who had spent 11 years on the North London club's books.
The teenage talent played 35 times in the U18s Premier League last season, but he was officially let go last month.
Beggs had only signed his first professional contract with Spurs a year earlier, having risen through the various age grades.
While his time at Tottenham is now over, he may get a second chance to prove himself at a Premier League club.
That is amid an update shared on Tuesday evening ahead of Everton Under-21s' clash with Shrewsbury Town.
Jamel Beggs one of two Everton U21s trialists
Everton included an unnamed trialist in their starting XI, and one on the bench, for Tuesday night's friendly with Shrewsbury.
While the name of one of those went unreported, the other - Beggs - was quickly shared via social media.
Everton will cast a close eye over the Englishman with a view of keeping him on permanently.
The contest at Croud Meadow is scheduled to kick off at 7:30pm BST.
It is the first friendly Shrewsbury, who compete in the fourth tier of English football, have contested this summer.
Identity of second Everton trialist may also be known
Goodison News relayed reports on Tuesday that Ollie Dewsbury is training with Everton.
The Bristol Rovers youngster was also wanted by Arsenal and Fulham, as well as Championship side Stoke City.
However, it looks as though the Toffees will have first dibs on the Wales age-grade international.
And there is widespread talk that Dewsbury is the second trialist listed in Everton's squad against Shrewsbury.
That will soon become clear, but it may well be that both youngsters do enough to stay on at Finch Farm for the long term should they impress.
Neither are going to be close to first-team contention just yet, but supporters do not need telling just how important it is to plan for the long term.
