DONE DEAL: Son of ex-Everton captain Jagielka signs for Liverpool

The son of former Everton captain Phil Jagielka has signed for Liverpool.

Zac, 13, is a versatile forward and is well thought of within the club's academy having joined from a grassroots junior team.

Centre-back Jagielka made 385 appearances for Everton during 12 seasons at Goodison Park, but his boy will be turning out in the red of Liverpool's Under-14s side.

Zac is said to be an all-round sportsman who also excels at golf, but sources believe he has a future in football, says the Daily Mail.

Jagielka, who was capped 40 times by England, left Everton for hometown club Sheffield United in 2019.
