Primarily a left back, Paddy is a versatile youngster, who can also play centre half or in midfield.
Having worked his way through the Everton youth academy, Paddy has progressed to the fringes of the first team, following an impressive run of form for the reserves.
Indeed, he was named as a substitute in the FA Cup fourth round tie against Premiership champions Chelsea at Goodison in January 2006.
Recognition of his form for the Blues has come in the shape of Scotland under 19 honours.
Boyle had a brief loan spell with Norwich City at the start of the 2006/2007 term but spent the remainder of the season quietly, making just one appearance for the Blues' reserve side.
