“As you all know, Sporting have the option to buy me at the end of the season, but it’s the performances that will speak for me on the pitch. That’s up to me: going on the pitch and doing my best to help the team achieve positive results.”

TBR’s View – Bolasie needs to perform this year and secure Everton exit for the sake of his career

Bolasie looks to have absolutely no future at Goodison Park and the fact that it took him so long to secure a move indicates that suitors weren’t exactly falling over themselves to swoop.

That means he needs to improve and impress out in Portugal in order to secure the move that he needs to avoid his career fizzling out.

From an Everton point of view, they need him out of the club in truth, as he doesn’t fit with what Marco Silva wants and has never been the same player since recovering from injury.
