Sean Dyche Addresses Arnaut Danjuma's Unusual Commute To Training At Everton

Everton manager Sean Dyche has reprimanded winger Arnaut Danjuma for his unconventional commute from Manchester to Liverpool for training. The Villarreal loanee has reportedly been making the eight-minute flight between Manchester Airport and Liverpool Airport to join his teammates, a practice that raised eyebrows among fans and coaching staff alike.

Dyche expressed his surprise at the situation during a pre-match press conference, highlighting the apparent excessiveness of using air travel for such a short distance. The manager mentioned having a conversation with Danjuma to address this peculiar travel arrangement, emphasizing the importance of players taking care of themselves and getting adequate rest.

The 26-year-old, on loan from Villarreal, has been a topic of interest for Lyon in the January transfer window, but Everton seems hesitant to part ways, particularly with Dwight McNeil recently sidelined due to injury. This incident adds a unique dimension to the ongoing discussions around the modern approach and lifestyle of professional footballers.

Here is the highlight video of Danjuma’s skills and goals.
