Everton have snapped up the highly-rated young striker Max Thompson from Manchester United on undisclosed terms.

The player took to social media to break the news that he has completed his move to the Toffees.

''Delighted to have signed for @Everton 💙😁,'' Thompson posted on Twitter on Monday evening.

In August, Thompson was part of Manchester United U16s 25-player traveling party to Hong Kong, where they faced District All-Stars and the Hong Kong Football Association academy in friendly matches.

He is expected to feature for Everton's U18 team in the 2018-2019 campaign.
