Tyrique George impressed for Everton on Saturday during the 2-2 draw at Brentford.
The Chelsea loanee made a positive impact, helping the Toffees battle back from 2-1 down to secure an important point in London.
David Moyes was pleased with George after the game, telling reporters that he liked what the 20-year-old brought to the pitch in his 16 minutes of action.
The Glaswegian said: “I like Tyrique. We’ll try to get him more opportunities and minutes when we can. He’s got good control, he wants to score and you saw that today.”
Now, a story from TEAMtalk shares what sources from within the Hill Dickinson Stadium are currently thinking about a permanent deal for Tyrique George.

Everton think they need to see more of Tyrique George before making a decision
The Toffees are said to have an option to buy the England U21 international for a sum of £25m this summer.
However, Everton are currently unsure whether that represents good value for money. TEAMtalk say the early signs are positive, but considering George has only played 120 minutes of football across six games since arriving on loan from Chelsea, The Friedkin Group are understandably hesitant.

Everton certainly seem to be in the market for a new winger.
BILD in Germany say Everton are expected to bid for Said El Mala of FC Koln, while the Toffees have also been credited with an interest in Leicester No.7 Abdul Fatawu as the Foxes slide towards League One.
