Under-23s Seal Deal For Keeper Crellin

Everton Under-23s have completed the signing of goalkeeper Billy Crellin from Fleetwood Town.

England Under-20 international Crellin has penned a two-and-a-half-year deal to keep him at Goodison Park until at least June 2024.

The 21-year-old, who featured in England’s Under-17 World Cup winning campaign in 2017, made his senior debut for League One side Fleetwood in October 2018.

Crellin played 16 matches during a promotion-winning season loan with then-League Two Bolton Wanderers last term. 

He had a shorter temporary spell in the National League with Chorley, where he played nine matches, in 2019/20, and the previous campaign spent time with FC United of Manchester in National League North.
