He is the boy from a quaint fishing town in Ireland, but Seamus Coleman could soon find himself as one of the most expensive defenders in British history.
As Louis van Gaal holds talks over the purchase of signings at Manchester United on Friday afternoon, the name of the Everton defender will be raised.
He is one of the most enthralling Premier League players to watch, blending his modern day professionalism with spirit of eras gone by perfectly.
Coleman is someone who would improve almost every team in the top flight, and has his perseverance to thank for that. He is a different kind of footballer, grateful for what he has but still holds ambition to play at the very top.
His slick and stylish panache on and off the ball is all that Everton want in a player, but he is very much different off the pitch.

There are aspects of Coleman’s life that are markedly different to the majority of his peers. Firstly, he is exceptionally modest, humble and treats the business for what it is: a job, and one which requires serious devotion.
The Irishman turns up to Finch Farm each day, works hard and then goes home. There are no graces to him; just a man born in a fishing town in County Donegal. He has a long-term girlfriend, leads a settled life and is dedicated to his family.
