Everton have confirmed that Under-23s striker Shayne Lavery has joined Falkirk on loan until the end of the season.
It was reported earlier today that the 20-year old forward was being eyed up by the Scottish Championship side, with the Bairns looking for an influx of talent as they look to fight for survival in the Scottish second tier.
And Everton have now confirmed that the deal has gone through, with the Northern Ireland international to remain in Sterlingshire until the end of the season.

Lavery, who has been with Everton since signing from Glenavon following a successful trial in 2015, has yet to play for the Blues, with the closest he has come being a position on the substitutes bench against Apollon Limassol in the Europa League dead rubber tie last season.
