Roberto Martinez not worried by Seamus Coleman injury

Martinez not worried by Coleman injury

Everton manager Roberto Martinez has insisted that he is not worried by the hamstring injury that Seamus Coleman picked up during Tuesday's pre-season draw with Tranmere Rovers.

The defender was forced off after 45 minutes at Prenton Park as the Toffees were held by their fellow Merseysiders.

However, Martinez has revealed that Coleman's withdrawal was only a precaution.

"Seamus came off as a precaution because he felt his hamstring slightly," the Spaniard told Sky Sports News. "Apart from that, it's been a real success in what we wanted to achieve."

Everton are back in pre-season action on Sunday when they meet Leicester City in Bangkok.
