Gylfi Sigurdsson was one of Ronald Koeman’s buys during his splurge in last summer’s transfer window at Everton.

The midfielder arrived at the club with plenty of promise, and even though he has been able to put in some decent performances for the Toffees, the team as a whole have struggled.

Koeman was sacked in October with the club plunging towards the relegation zone, and eventually the Dutchman was replaced with Sam Allardyce.

However, the experienced coach’s long-term future at Goodison Park remains uncertain, and fans have already begun assessing his potential successors.

This season, Sigurdsson has made 32 appearances in all competitions, netting five goals and creating four assists for the Toffees.

Earlier this month, the former Swansea City star suffered a blow when he picked up a knee injury during Everton’s 2-0 win over Brighton.

Since then, the 28-year-old has been working on his recovery, and he has now claimed that it was possibly the worst time for him to get injured.

While speaking to the club’s official website, Sigurdsson said:

“I felt I was getting towards it [my best football]. I felt fit and really good. My confidence was coming back and for the team as well, with two wins in a row, it was a bad time to drop out. It is a frustrating time but it is just one of those things and you have to get on with it.”

Everton have won their last two Premier League games and currently sit ninth in the table on 40 points.
