Speaking to the official Everton website James Beattie has set his sights on being the next owner of the famous number 9 shirt.
He will have a lot to live up to if he wants to emulate the other greats who have worn the shirt such as Dixie Dean, Joe Royle, Bob Latchford, Graeme Sharp and Duncan Ferguson, but Beattie is ready to take up the responsibility.
He told evertonfc.com from the Blues' training camp in Austria: "I do fancy it. There was talk of it when I signed for the club earlier on in the year.
"I would be privileged to wear it especially with the rich history that goes with it.
"I do know quite a bit about the history because we went through it when I was signing.
"Obviously great players have worn it and I want to add my name to that list."
Beattie insists that if David Moyes was to give him the shirt then he would live up to expectations that go with wearing it.
"It would give me a boost. I was nine at Southampton for four years and scoring goals quite regularly.
"Hopefully I can put the Blue number nine on and do it justice - no, I will do if I get it." |
