Everton bring in QPR youngster

Bowler made his first-team debut for Ian Holloway's QPR on the final day last season in a defeat at Norwich and is expected to go into David Unsworth's under-23 squad at Goodison Park.

The youngster has signed a three-year deal.

Bowler signed his first professional contract with QPR in March but has seemingly impressed enough to arouse the interest of bigger clubs.

He is described as a left-footed winger who can play off either flank.

In an interview with the Everton club website, Bowler said: “I’m really excited to join Everton – it’s a fantastic opportunity for me.”

“This is a club on the up at every level. I can’t wait to get started, meet the other lads and begin working with David Unsworth."

“I’m a direct player, I feel like I can bring excitement in the final third and this is the perfect place for me to continue my education and development.”
