After his move to Everton from Manchester United in the January 2017 transfer window, Morgan Schneiderlin impressed the Blues faithful with his form in the second half of the season.

At 27-years old, the Frenchman is entering the prime years of his career and Everton will be hoping that he can continue his high level of performances and help the club have a successful season, both in the league and in Europe.
