Henry Onyekuru continued to show Everton what they were missing with another fine performance on Friday night.

The 20-year-old maintained his red-hot form for Anderlecht by scoring twice in the 4-3 win over KV Mechelen to make it six goals in six starts for the Nigerian star.

He joined the Belgian side on loan immediately after his £7 million move to Everton from Eupen.

The Toffees failed to sign a replacement for Romelu Lukaku and Ronald Koeman could do with another striker in his first-team squad, by virtue of the fact that the Merseysiders have only managed four goals in seven Premier League games so far.

According to a report in Nigerian outlet 90 Minutes Goal this week, Koeman was weighing up the prospect of recalling Onyekuru from Belgium in an effort to boost his firepower, and Everton fans would be certainly on board for that.
