Warrington has played 13 times in Premier League 2 this season and made three appearances in the EFL Trophy, for the Blues.
And should a loan move be finalised before the 11pm deadline, then it would represent the first move into senior football of Warrington's career.
The Wirral-born midfielder only made his full debut for Everton's u-23s in April but has made significant progress in that time and is now being primed for a short spell into the Football League.
