Everton prepare to welcome back Barkley to training

Everton and England midfielder Ross Barkley is set to return to full training. The 20-year-old hasn't played this season because of a knee injury but Toffees boss Roberto Martinez told the club's website: "On Monday we expect Ross, with the green light from the medical department, to join the group.

"Now it's a matter of getting him match fitness and getting him up to speed. Ross has been working really, really well and I don't expect any setbacks. I expect Ross, from now on, to have a real clear path to get his match fitness back."
