Everton set to give trial to Bolivian midfield starlet Samuel Galindo

EVERTON are set to hand a trial to South American midfield starlet Samuel Galindo.The 17-year-old Bolivian will arrive on Merseyside next week for a seven-day trial at Finch Farm, after being recommended by the Blues' international scouts.The teenager will train with Andy Holden's reserves, and could be offered a contract if he impresses in a process similar to the one which saw Seamus Coleman become an Everton player.Galindo, who plays for Real America in the Bolivian league, has already represented his country's U-20 side and has previously been linked with Wigan.Although Galindo captained the u-20s and has been training with Bolivia's full squad, there would need to be an appeal if Everton applied for a work permit.Galindo, who will be accompanied by his father, is reported to have told Bolivian newspapers: 'I hope not to waste this opportunity to prove to everyone that there are good players in Bolivia.'The Blues have also been linked with a move for Belgian club Moucron's midfielder Maxime Lestienne.
