Toffees take a look at Lawrie
Everton have taken Port Vale's highly-rated striker James Lawrie on trial.
Lawrie, 18, already capped at senior level by Northern Ireland, does not fall into the category of first-team squad potential yet.
He will be assessed over the next few days with a possible decision on a transfer not likely until next week.
Lawrie was involved in 26 games for Vale last season, the vast majority as a substitute, and is rated one of the best youth products at the Potteries club for many years.
He made his international debut last month as a substitute against Italy and Vale chairman Bill Bratt said: "Everton asked if they can have James for a week to see whether they would be interested.
"We cannot stand in his way and we wouldn't want to. He has come through the ranks here and done his best for Vale, but he has to look to his career. We have to understand that."
