Everton’s first summer signing Iroegbunam hopes Ashley Young can mentor him

Tim Iroegbunam, England’s U20 international of Nigerian descent,  says he is looking forward to reuniting with his former Aston Villa teammate, Ashley Young, at Everton and he’s hoping the experienced fullback will mentor him at the club.

The young midfielder became Everton’s first signing of the summer transfer window in a three-year deal which runs to June in 2027.

Ashley Young joined Everton on a season-long deal last summer following his release by Aston Villa and recently extended his contract with the Merseyside club.
