And Virginia says he would be happy to spend another spell away from Goodison Park.

"I'm ready to go anywhere now," he told Goal. "I think I will feel that way until I'm 40!

"I'm still young and I still have a lot of time, but I will always be eager to play because that's who I am. I'll always give my best, every single day, to be a starter for whichever team."

On his experience in Portugal, Virginia added: "It was good, because it was a different experience. Coming back to Portugal, the football is different.

"It's very tactical and the positioning is different for a goalkeeper. "Sporting, for example, is obviously different to Everton in terms of style. Everton are more [about] kicking the ball long, counter attacking. At Sporting, you dominate the game, we have the ball at our feet and that's something I had to improve on.

"I had to adapt, but it's good that I can show I can play different styles. Different managers ask for different things, and you need to be ready to deliver on any perspective or idea that a coach might have."
