Yannick Bolasie could make his long-awaited return for Everton against Swansea

The Toffees winger returned for the Blues' Under-23s against Leicester on Monday and is set to feature for them tonight against Dinamo Zagreb.

Everton boss Sam Allardyce will then make a decision if he is ready to return to the first-team squad for the visit of Swansea.

Bolasie, a £28m signing from Crystal Palace, has not played since rupturing his knee ligaments in a draw with Manchester United on December 4 last year.

Allardyce said: "Yannick Bolasie is training and will probably play some part in a game tonight.

“We will see what happens with that and we may, depending on the whole team here, have a discussion as to whether that makes him available for selection on Monday night."
