Ramiro Funes Mori Targets First Team Run After Injury Return & Uses Everton Teammate as Inspiration

Argentine defender Ramiro Funes Mori is targeting a first team run at Everton after returning from a 10-month absence through injury.

The 26-year-old played 45 minutes of Everton's U23s 4-0 defeat away to Arsenal and is slowly returning to match fitness.

New loan signing Eliaquim Mangala had an underwhelming debut against Arsenal, in the Toffees' 5-1 defeat on Saturday and Funes Mori is hoping he can take advantage and regain his position in Sam Allardyce's back line "as soon as possible."
