Midfielder Hughes has made rapid progress since penning scholarship forms in summer 2018 and regularly captained Paul Tait’s Under-18 team this season.

“It is a really proud moment for me and my family and I am really excited for the future,” said Hughes. “I owe so much to my family. They have been on the journey with me and everything I achieve I owe to them.

“I know Anthony Gordon well and have played with him quite a bit, so some of the players involved with the first team are relatable.

“I see all those players on the board. I know a few of them and can talk to them.

“Everton is the right club to be at – it is one of the best clubs in England for developing young players – and hopefully where I can keep improving and make the next step.”

On 21st June 2022, Rhys left Everton to sign a 2 year contract with Tranmere Rovers.

Good luck from all at Love Everton Forum.
