Everton starlet Junior bides his time

Everton midfielder Francisco Junior is looking forward to breaking into the Toffees' first team, and is willing to wait for his chance. Junior joined Everton on a free transfer last month, and is very highly rated at Goodison Park.

The Portugal under-21 midfielder has a four year contract at the Blues, and is looking forward to proving his worth.


Junior said: "I feel very happy to have joined Everton. It's a great challenge and now I just want to show my talent to the fans.


"My first mission is to try to get into the first team. Then it is to win over the fans and to win things with Everton. They're a big team and they're a team which is normally challenging for cups or for the European places. That is what I want to do.


"I like to play beautiful football, I like to touch the ball and I like to play both defensively and in attack. I can play both ways and with both feet. I'm coming here to show my football, in every training session I will give everything, and when I have an opportunity to play I will do so with lots of heart."
