Manchester-born striker Katia Kouyate joined Everton aged eight and is eligible to play for both England and Ivory Coast.
A dynamic attacker, Kouyate possesses impressive speed, skill and power.
He featured regularly for Everton Under-18s in the early months of the 2020/21 season and broke into the Blues' Under-23s team, playing four matches before a hamstring injury curtailed his campaign.
The 2021/22 season saw Kouyate play three Premier League 2 matches for the Blues' Under-23 side and he made two assists.
Kouyate counts the strike trio of Didier Drogba, Thierry Henry and Dominic Calvert-Lewin as his football inspirations.
Kouyate’s favourite place in the world is France – he can speak fluent French – while away from football he likes basketball, FIFA and listening to gospel music.
In September 2022, Kouyate signed a new two-year contract until the end of June 2024.
Contracted until: June 2024
