Everton defender Michael Keane struggled last season after joining the club in the summer transfer window from Burnley.
This season, he has been playing with confidence under Marco Silva. After partnering with the likes of Phil Jagielka, Mason Holgate, and Ashley Williams last season, Keane was aware that Marcel Brands will reinforce the defensive set up at the club.
In the summer transfer window, Everton signed Yerry Mina from Barcelona and Kurt Zouma on loan from Chelsea. While Mina is yet to start a game for the Toffees, Keane has forged a strong partnership with Zouma at the back.
