Everton winger Korede Adedoyin enjoyed one of his proudest moments since he started playing the round leather game after scoring four goals for the Toffees in their 7-0 demolition of Newcastle United in the U18 Premier League on Saturday.

The Nigerian-born teenager scored from close range in the 28th minute to give the home team a three-goal advantage.

Adedoyin netted the second of his four goals a minute into the second half and got his hat-trick in the 66th minute, then completed his double brace with a stunning curler after beating three Newcastle United defenders.

Everton Under-18s coach Paul Tait was full of praise for Adedoyin, and believes the player's hard work paid off.

He told  Everton's official website : ''We played him in a different position today to try to get him on the ball and he’s done fantastic.

''His work rate was excellent today and he got his reward with four goals. Hopefully that will make him see the benefit of working hard.''

Korede Adedoyin, who has cited Ivory Coast international Wilfried Zaha as his role model, has been on the books of Everton since the age of ten, and rose through the ranks before making his debut for the U18s during the 2016-17 season.
