Everton's Ben Godfrey is relishing his return after "the hardest period" of his career to date due to an injury picked up on the opening day of the season.
Godfrey fractured his fibula just 10 minutes into Everton's 1-0 defeat to Chelsea at Goodison Park but returned to complete his first 90 minutes of action in the Under-21s 2-1 victory over Mansfield Town in the Papa John's Trophy last week.
