Five things spotted in Everton's first day of training as defender returns earlier than expected

Everton's stars returned to Finch Farm after the summer break as attention turned to the coming season.

Photos released by the club showed the players going through their paces in the gym and being put through training drills under the gaze of Frank Lampard. Among those in attendance was new signing James Tarkowski following his arrival after his contract with Burnley expired.

Behind-the-scenes, the focus will be on further strengthening the squad after last season's relegation battle - and to replace Richarlison after his departure last week. Finding another source for goals after the Brazil international's move to Tottenham Hotspur will be crucial to progress under Lampard.
