On Sunday morning, in the South Korean city of Suwon, five Everton players lifted the Under-20 World Cup.
Three of them had come all the way through the Blues’ famed Academy; two had been brought in thanks to a rigorous scouting mission to unearth the best young talents not already on the books.
All five had played their part in the Club’s Premier League 2 triumph in 2016/17, while three also appeared for Ronald Koeman’s first team during the campaign.
All five - Callum Connolly, Dominic Calvert-Lewin, Kieran Dowell, Jonjoe Kenny and Ademola Lookman - have made their first team and Premier League debuts for Everton.
