Youngster heads to Scotland
Everton's John Paul Kissock has joined struggling Scottish Premier League side Gretna on loan until the end of the season.
The 18-year-old has risen through the ranks from being an academy player with Everton and has been a regular in the reserves for the last two campaigns.
The attacking midfielder signed professional terms with the Toffees in December 2006.
Kissock was included in the travelling party for the Uefa Cup game against AZ Alkmaar although he did not make the matchday squad.
He will go straight into the squad for Gretna's clash with Hibs at Easter Road on Saturday.
