Will the man once labelled a 'fox in the box' be able to box? That is the question Francis Jeffers will have to answer when he takes the Merseyside derby into the ring.
The former Everton striker, who burst on to the scene and earned a big move to Arsenal where his career took a subsequent nose dive, retired back in 2013. Jeffers has since been working in the Toffees' academy set-up but will now be taking up a different kind of training.
Jeffers will make his boxing debut in a charity fight against ex-Liverpool winger David Thompson, 39, in July.
