Everton to clinch second transfer in the next 24 hours
Everton are set to follow up on the signing of Gareth Barry with the £4m signing of Brendan Galloway from MK Dons in the next 24 hours according to local reports.
The England under 19 international has been linked to the blues for a number of weeks and recently Roberto Martinez confirmed that the youngster was close to signing.
The youngster recently started following the official Everton account on twitter prompting speculation he had signed and this is now expected to be announced in the coming days.
The 18 year old midfielder made his debut for the Milton Keynes club when he was just 15 years old and last year he was named the league one apprentice of the year.
Versatile Galloway can also play in defence and played 13 times for Karl Robinsons team last season scoring one goal and getting one sending off on his last match of the season against Rotherham United.
Zimbabwe born Galloway is expected to command a fee of up to £4m.

He is a special talent and good signing
I know nothing about him but trust Martinez who has an excellent track record with developing young footballing talent. Having said that, I hope we also sign proven talent soon, Medel, Lukaku, Ba and Diame would do very nicely. Maybe keep that Traore on loan too. If we manage that then we look in good shape for next season.
