Jordan Pickford, Sandro Ramirez to make Everton debuts against Genk

By Matt Law, Football Editor | 21 July 2017

Ronald Koeman confirms that Jordan Pickford and Sandro Ramirez will both make their Everton debuts in Saturday's pre-season friendly with Genk.

Everton boss Ronald Koeman has revealed that summer signings Jordan Pickford and Sandro Ramirez will both make their debuts for the Toffees in Saturday's pre-season friendly with Genk.

Pickford and Sandro have only just linked up with their new teammates after representing England Under-21s and Spain Under-21s respectively at the Under-21 European Championships in Poland earlier this summer.

Koeman has said that the pair will play for "a maximum of 60 minutes" against Genk as the Toffees boss looks to integrate the duo ahead of the new Premier League campaign.

"Pickford and Sandro will start tomorrow and then we will see how long they will play, maybe 45 or a maximum of 60 minutes," Koeman told the club's official website.

Everton have won both of their pre-season fixtures to date, following a 2-1 victory over Gor Mahia last week with a 3-0 success over FC Twente on Wednesday night.
