OdinSamuels-Smith

Talented right-back Odin Samuels-Smith joined Everton at Under-12 level. The Manchester-born youngster boasts impressive pace and is a strong one-v-one defender.

Along with 15 Everton Under-18s league appearances during the 2022/23 season, Samuels-Smith also made his Premier League 2 debut, featuring for the full 90 minutes in a 4-1 win over Leicester City.

More minutes with both age groups followed during 2023/24, and following that, in August 2024 he signed his first professional contract at Everton.

Samuels-Smith featured 20 times in the league for Everton Under-21s during 2024/25, operating across the back four in both full-back positions and as a central defender.

Continuing his development, he was sent on loan to Marine between October and December 2025, earning 12 appearances in the National League North.

Returning to Everton to see out the season, Samuels-Smith was called up by Jamaica for their friendlies in May 2026 – and he was handed a first senior cap against India.

Contracted until: June 2027
