On-loan Everton attacker Yannick Bolasie was in action on Tuesday night for Championship club Middlesbrough – and some Boro fans on Twitter raved about his performance for them.
Bolasie, 31, is out of contract with Everton this summer, and it would be a surprise if he has a future at Goodison Park after being excluded from Carlo Ancelotti’s squad.
The versatile forward was sent out on loan in January to give him first-team football, joining Championship outfit Boro until the end of the season.
He’s quickly given them some extra firepower going forward, and played during Boro’s 2-0 league win last night over Preston North End.
The skilful wide player managed one assist during his hour on the pitch, as he builds up his match fitness.
Bolasie has the flexibility to play anywhere across the frontline, with his pace and unique trickery making him a real handful for defenders.
It’s never quite happened for him on Merseyside and he’s now on his fourth loan spell away from Everton, but his situation looks likely to change soon when his contract with the Toffees expires in the summer.

A selection of Boro supporters on social media were massively impressed with Bolasie’s latest display in the Championship.
Some claim they’d love to sign him on a permanent basis, and as it stands he’d be available on a free transfer in the summer.
