Everton interim manager David Unsworth has issued a challenge to striker Sandro to make the most of the opportunities that will be given to him due to the ban of Oumar Niasse and to go on a goal scoring run.
The 22-year-old Sandro arrived at the Toffees during the summer transfer window but has gotten off to a slow start at the club.
He managed to score his first goal for the club during the 5-1 defeat by Atalanta in the Europa League on Thursday.
“He (Sandro) has been working harder. We need every single player to contribute, to run around, to work their socks off and that’s a prerequisite – we can’t carry anybody,” Unsworth told the club’s website. (www.evertonfc.com)
”There’s always an opportunity for players when somebody gets suspended or is injured. That’s why you have so many players in your squad.
“Oumar’s been doing brilliantly for us and will unfortunately miss the game, which I‘m really disappointed about because he’s been flying for us. But it gives somebody else an opportunity.”
Fellow striker Niasse is serving a two match suspension as a result of being found guilty of simulation during the club’s Premier League draw against Crystal Palace last weekend.
