2023/24 Seamus Coleman


From Guardian match report
“ At right-back in came the redoubtable Seamus Coleman for his first appearance since undergoing surgery on a serious knee injury suffered at Leicester in May. The return of the 35-year-old means he has played for Everton for a remarkable 15 seasons in succession. In financial terms, Coleman’s £60,000 transfer fee from Sligo Rovers now works out at £4000 per season in Everton colours.”

Unreal that.

£4k a season is crazy in modern terms. There can't have been a bigger bargain in PL history, surely? Particularly when you consider he's never been on crazy wages.

Especially as for a guy that runs his heart out each week and never shirks a challenge this is a pretty great injury record so he has been available to play for very long spells of his 15 years,
