Accrington sign Everton winger Heath on loan

Isaac Heath has made four appearances for Everton's Under-21s side in the EFL Trophy, including against Accrington Stanley last season

Accrington Stanley have signed winger Isaac Heath from Premier League side Everton on a season-long loan.

The 20-year-old was the Toffees' Under-21 player of the season in 2024-25, and was part of their pre-season squad and played against Accrington prior to his move.

Heath is yet to make a full first team appearance for Everton and joins League Two Accrington for his first experience of senior football.

"It's a massive step in my career. I feel like it's a step that needed to be taken and it's at the right time," he told BBC Radio Lancashire.

"I'm really excited to get started and to test myself against men's teams."
