Everton: Fans laud Jonjoe Kenny as report breaks on his future

Many Everton fans have been lauding Jonjoe Kenny as a report from Liverpool Echo broke questioning what the future holds for him at the Merseyside club.

Indeed, the right-back has spent the current 2019/20 season on loan at FC Schalke o4 in Germany, and has arguably impressed. The 23-year old has featured in 32 games in all competitions so far for the German team, scoring two goals and making a further three assists, according to Transfermarkt.

His relatively impressive displays so far have been hailed by his current manager and former Huddersfield Town boss David Wagner, who spoke to the i newspaper about the Englishman, claiming that he is close to being a fan favourite at Schalke despite him only being there for a relatively short period of time on loan.

One EFC supporter even suggested to ‘sell Coleman’ to make room for Kenny to return to Goodison Park, which are rather high plaudits considering that the Irish international and club captain is arguably fan favourite himself with the 310 matches in all competitions that the 31-year old has played in across 11 consecutive terms, as per Transfermarkt.

Nevertheless, these Toffees lauded Kenny on Twitter after reading the report and being asked by the publication if they want to see the youngster given a chance at Goodison…

Ideally I like to see us Sign a new right back an have him and Kenny fighting it out
I'd sell Coleman as I'd hate to see him go the same way as Distin/Jags and Howard

If the choice is him or Sidibe, then absolutely.

I’m sure Carlo has had him well monitored this season. If he likes what he hears,then get him in. If not,let’s get linked with another exotic sounding foreigner.

Yes. Went to Germany & improved himself. Rather him than some random foreign loan here for the pay packet & no affinity to the club.
