Martinez: It’s great to see Ramiro enjoying his football and adapting
Everton manager Roberto Martinez says it is great that summer signing Ramiro Funes Mori is enjoying his football and adapting to the English game, which comes off the back of media reports that the big South American was homesick.
Martinez feels that although it is a huge loss to have captain Phil Jagielka out, the emergence of John Stones and Funes Mori has been incredible.
‘We can’t wait to have our captain back but it is great to see Ramiro enjoying his football, adapting his football to the British game,’ said Martinez. ‘It has been a massive step forward in his career but that is why we made a huge investment.
‘To have John Stones at the level he is showing and the responsibility he has shown for 21 is incredible. When you have a new centre-half appearing in a new league you need guidance and John has helped him and they have developed a strong partnership.’
How do you rate Funes Mori’s first few months in English football?
