Moyes reveals Coleman on verge of Everton return | OneFootball

David Moyes has revealed Séamus Coleman is closing in on his Everton comeback.

Coleman's first-team prospects have been hampered by injury with only four outings all season and his most recent coming against Manchester City in late December.

The Toffees' captain is yet to feature under Moyes since his own return to the Goodison Park hot seat but was involved in the club's warm weather training camp.

Ahead of Saturday's trip to Wolves, Moyes disclosed Coleman is making tentative steps on his road to recovery and could soon be back in first-team contention.

"We took all the players [on the camp]," said Moyes.

"It was good that Séamus Coleman, (Armando) Broja, (Youssef) Chermiti are all getting themselves closer to playing again.

"Séamus is much nearer. Whether he's ready to be involved [at Wolves] I'm not quite sure yet.

"He's training and we're obviously trying not to get him re-injured so we're giving him every opportunity to ensure he's fine."

The Everton manager also revealed that loanee Armando Broja could rejoin his squad options early next month after suffering an ankle ligament injury in January.

"He's training, he's joined in a little bit," added Moyes.

"He's not fully right yet. I would say that after the international break would probably be the right time.

"There's an outside chance that maybe he could be fit for next week. But at the moment I can only follow the medical team.

"If I was guessing, I'd probably say it looks more likely after the international break."

Everton travel to Molineux with a 15-point cushion to the relegation zone.
