Oumar Niasse is in my plan, assures Everton coach Marco Silva

Everton manager Marco Silva has assured Oumar Niasse of a spot in his plan for next season after his impressive performances in pre-season so far.

On Wednesday, the Senegal international scored his fifth pre-season goal to save the Toffees from defeat against Bury.

The forward endured a torrid time while manager Ronald Koeman was in charge as he found playing time difficult to come by, although he enjoyed more action under Sam Allardyce.

However, the Portuguese tactician has confirmed that he wants the 28-year-old for next season as he offers ‘different’ thing from his other strikers.
