Ahead of the full reveal which is coming tomorrow, Everton and Umbro have employed some of the club’s youngest fans to tease the unveiling of their new 2015/16 home kit.

“I was over the moon when Ethan was selected. I started following Everton in the mid-80s and have been an avid fan ever since.”
“After Ethan was born the first outfit he wore was his Everton baby grow, in fact as I was dressing him at the hospital I was listening to the Crystal Palace game at Selhurst Park earlier this season and Lukaku scored and we went onto win the game.
“When we found out Ethan had won I was bursting to tell everyone as I was just so proud. I am just counting down the days until I can take him to his first game.”
How sweet!
