Everton boost as senior player is pictured at Finch Farm after lengthy absence
By Abigail Withey
Everton winger Aaron Lennon has been pictured returning to pre-season training after being detained under the Mental Health Act at the end of April.
The 30-year-old returned to the Toffees’ Finch Farm training ground on Monday with his fellow team mates, and was pictured on the club’s official Twitter account.
Senior Toffees player Lennon was pictured on a bed receiving a medical test in the club’s sneak preview post on social media, which is no doubt a huge boost to both the club and the player.
The pictures also showed long-term absentees Yannick Bolasie and Seamus Coleman make a return to the training complex.
The tweet showed exclusive behind-the-scenes pictures of the players beginning their fitness regimes.
Lennon was admitted to hospital in April after the former Tottenham star was seen behaving erratically in Salford by police officers, and has since been on a leave of absence from the club.
The Toffee winger has now returned to the club’s pre-season training and looks to be making a quick recovery.
The former England international has not made an appearance with Ronald Koeman’s first team squad since February, and made just 13 appearances before he was taken unwell.
Lennon now looks to be making all the right steps in order to make a return into the Everton first team, as Koeman’s side begin their tough Premier League campaign.
