Neal Maupay has conceded he endured a "complicated" first season at Everton due to the dismissal of Frank Lampard.
The French forward was recruited by the Blues last August for a £15million fee, bringing to an end his three-season stay with Brighton. Just one year on from his Merseyside arrival, however, and Maupay is already being linked with a summer exit from the club.
Unable to provide the answer to the Blues' lack of goals, the 26-year-old got off the mark for Everton with a match-winning strike over West Ham in September but could not add to this tally during the remainder of the campaign.
