KV Kortrijk move for Everton striker Fraser Hornby

KV Kortrijk have made a move for Everton striker Fraser Hornby.

The Liverpool Echo says the 19-year-old will hold talks with top flight side KV Kortrijk today ahead of a possible loan move.

Kortrijk finished fourth in the Belgian first division last season and have won two of their opening four games this term, defeating Anderlecht 4-2 at the weekend.

Hornby had attracted interest from a host of domestic clubs with a short-term move to League One deemed the most likely following the close of the Championship window earlier this month.

But in a surprise move, the teenage forward - a Premier League 2 title winner with the Blues last term - is closing in on a switch to the continent.
