Sigurdsson is understood to believe that, in club football, he is best suited to an advanced attacking midfield role — the conventional No 10 slot he filled for previous Everton manager Marco Silva.

Sigurdsson started the game — a 3-3 draw against League One opposition — in central midfield, as he had done for much of the previous season with mixed success. It is a role he is having to learn.

Swansea City have reportedly told Everton they will have to pay a whopping £50 million if they want to sign Gylfi Sigurdsson this summer.

This season, Sigurdsson’s stats read as follows: 26 league appearances, one goal, two assists. Rarely has a drop-off in form — at least from a statistical point of view — been quite so stark.
