Valente pushing for return
25/11/2005 - 13:58:04Everton could have Portuguese defender Nuno Valente back in their squad for Sunday’s Premiership clash with Newcastle.
The 31-year-old has missed the last four games with a hamstring injury but has been in training all week and could return at left-back to allow Phil Neville to return to his midfield role.
Tim Cahill, who has been struggling with a groin injury since playing for Australia earlier in the month, could also return to the side.
Provisional squad: Martyn, Hibbert, Weir, Yobo, Valente, Kilbane, Van der Meyde, Cahill, Arteta, Osman, Davies, McFadden, Bent, Beattie, Ferguson, Kroldrup, Wright.
