Blues whose boris Mathis? Supposedly a midfielder we've signed from Metz.
Any of the eds know anything?

Wonder if this is one of Walsh's gems.

{Ed002's Note - It would be a surprise if he has actually signed. One hopes that if that is the case they checked his registration details very carefully indeed.}

Not a straight forward one eds?

{Ed002's Note - No I don't think so. Boris Mathis is only a kid (18 I would think) and I am not even sure if he has played for Metz' first eleven yet. There was a dispute over his first pro contract which would have been limited to three years but he is registered as a Metz player. Everton would need to approach Metz about and discuss any transfer and I am pretty ceratin that has not happened. So for me I don't see how he could have signed without unravelling his contract. I can't answer if he is any good or not as I only knew of him at all because of the contract issue.}

I read that he'd played twice for the first team last season but little else about him.

He's signed, allegedly. Photos all over Twitter of him and the Everton Crest.

I read he has played twice too, so does that mean he may have signed professional terms with Metz?

{Ed002's Note - See above.}

Believe the deal went through as Bill Kenwright and the lad's brother Johnny are good mates.
