The 16 year old defender had been linked with moves to Manchester United, Celtic, Manchester City, Arsenal and Southampton, but Everton look to have signed the youngster.
Director of football Steve Walsh is overseeing an aggressive recruitment drive of players aged between 16-18 and Gibson is a central part of his plans.
