Throughout the year, all we could find in Belgium regarding Everton’s David Henen was his desire to leave Goodison Park and find a club where he could play regularly.

Admitting to turning down a new five-year contract, the 21-year-old made it clear he wanted out, but that has changed entirely if DH’s latest report is to be believed.

The Belgian newspaper report on their website late on Wednesday night that despite interest from five clubs, including Queens Park Rangers, the forward is expected to stay at Everton.

Ronald Koeman is said to have been ‘seduced’ by his versatility and his excellent preseason, and ‘absolutely wants to keep him’ this season.

Yet to make to his debut for the Toffees despite arriving from Olympiakos permanently in 2015 after a loan at Goodison Park during the 2014/15 season, that is expected to change during the current campaign.

Malaga in Spain, both Standard Liège and Antwerp in Belgium, QPR in England and a French club were said to be after him, with the latter of the two Belgian sides allegedly closest to getting their man before the Dutch manager stepped in.
