Koeman and Jagielka pay a visit to Everton leg break victim Coleman

The Republic of Ireland international is facing a long road to recovery after suffering a double fracture while representing his country against Wales

Everton manager Ronald Koeman and club captain Phil Jagielka have attempted to raise the spirits of leg break victim Seamus Coleman.

The Toffees full-back suffered a double fracture while away on international duty with the Republic of Ireland.

A nasty challenge from Wales defender Neil Taylor brought a premature end to Coleman’s 2016-17 campaign and forced him under the knife.

After undergoing surgery, the 28-year-old is now starting out on the long road to recovery, with a couple of familiar faces on hand to help him stay positive during his rehabilitation.
