Everton have confirmed they have agreed a fee of £5million with Cardiff for much-coveted teenage sensation Aaron Ramsey.

FA Cup finalists City accepted an undisclosed offer from two `top Premier League teams' - one of which was revealed to be Manchester United - on Tuesday.

But David Moyes' Toffees are now the latest big name to confirm they have also had their approach for the midfield prodigy, who earned an international call-up to John Toshack's senior Wales squad recently, accepted by the Ninian Park outfit.

A statement on Everton's official website read: "The Bluebirds have accepted a bid of £5million from Everton for the 17-year-old midfielder.

"Everton have now been given permission to talk to the player about a move to Goodison Park."
