Everton searches for new captain following Coleman's departure

"

Everton are on the hunt for a new club captain for the first time in seven years following Seamus Coleman's departure. The 37-year-old, who was handed the armband following Phil Jagielka's exit in August 2019, led the Toffees out over 140 times during his captaincy. Having signed the full-back for £60,000 in January 2009, during his first spell as Everton boss, David Moyes described Coleman as the "glue that has held an awful lot together" and "the one who stepped up to galvanise the team".
