Everton defender Ashley Williams targets Euro return

Everton defender Ashley Williams wants to help the club return to Europe.

Williams reached the last 32 of the Europa with Swansea City before they were knocked out by Rafa Benitez's Napoli in 2014.

The Wales captain also reached last summer's Euro semi-finals with his country, and the Everton defensive rock is keen for more European football.

He said: “It whets the appetite for more. I'm hungry anyway. I'm 32 now but I want to keep pushing on.

“We're having a good season, we're seventh and trying to push into Europe. Why not? I'd love to get back in the Europa League one more time."
