England U20 international signs in season deal

Town have signed England U20 international Callum Connolly on a season long loan from Everton.

The 19-year-old defender progressed through the youth ranks at Goodison Park and made his Premier League bow for the Toffees against Southampton on April 2016.

He had a month on loan at Barnsley in the 2015/16 season and then spent the second half of last term on loan at Wigan, scoring twice in 17 Championship appearances.

An attacking right-back, he has been tracked by Town over the last 18 months.

He was a member of the England U20 squad that won the World Cup at that level in the summer, playing twice in the tournament.

Callum will meet up with his new team-mates on  Monday.
