Forgotten Everton man makes cryptic Instagram post

Everton winger Kevin Mirallas has made a cryptic Instagram post.

The Belgian spent the 2018/19 season on loan at Fiorentina, and is understood to be surplus to requirements at Goodison Park next term.

The 31-year-old – who earns £70,000-a-week (Spotrac) – has a contract until next summer, but he surely won’t be turning out for the Toffees next season, with director of football Marcel Brands wanting a young squad.

There hasn’t been much speculation yet about Mirallas’ future, but the player has recently taken to social networking site Instagram.

In the past couple of days, Mirallas has uploaded two photos of himself holidaying in Dubai – whether that will be his next destination remains to be seen.

His post on Monday included the caption ‘What will the future bring me’.

The cryptic post doesn’t really give anything away, but it wouldn’t be a surprise if there was a development in the pipeline.

TBR’s view

Mirallas’ stint over in Serie A was fairly uninspiring.

In 30 appearances he scored just two goals and made three assists.

Before that, he failed to pull up trees at Olympiacos.

He hasn’t appeared in a competitive game for Everton since December 2017.

Everton harbour hopes of breaking into the top six, and players like Mirallas – who has struggled to show consistency for the club during his seven-year stint – must be moved on.
