Everton youngster Ryan Ledson is set to join Cambridge United on loan until January.

The 18-year-old will link up with the League Two club and their new manager Shaun Derry.

Ledson made his senior Everton debut last season in December’s Europa League dead-rubber with Krasnodar at Goodison.

The Fazakerley teenager has been on international duty this week with England under-19s.

Ledson has previously captained England u-17s when they won the European Championships last year.

This summer Ledson told the ECHO that he was ready to be sent out into the Football League for a spell, saying: “It would be good for me to go out on loan.

“I’ve been in and around the first-team and I’ve played in the under-21s for two years so the next step for me is to go and play men’s football and see what it’s about in the real world.”
