Frank Lampard has revealed Nathan Patterson will return to Everton's matchday squad for Saturday's Premier League meeting with Fulham.
The Blues will be looking to build on last weekend's comprehensive victory over Crystal Palace and will travel to Craven Cottage with one of their standout performers of the current season. Indeed, Patterson caught the eye during Everton's opening seven league fixtures but has been sidelined since September due to an ankle injury sustained while in international action for Scotland.
Patterson has been training over the last week and is now ready to be involved in the squad at the weekend, representing a major boost for the Toffees. Offering an update on the young defender on Thursday afternoon, Lampard told reporters: "Patterson is back in the squad for this weekend.
