Everton fans are calling for Oumar Niasse to get more playing time after the club posted a birthday tweet to the Senegal international.

It’s been a rather weird season for Everton fans, as the signings that were supposed to deliver European football have only delivered disappointment.

January signings Cenk Tosun and Theo Walcott have certainly made a more positive impact, but they have also meant less playing time for fan favourite Oumar Niasse.

Niasse was treated very poorly under Ronald Koeman, and his occasional lack of ability is more than made up for through sheer hard work and determination.

Fans will always appreciate a player who gives 110 per cent for the cause, and plenty are calling for him to get more minutes after the club wished him a happy 28^th birthday.

The Senegalese star has started just nine games in the Premier League this season, but has still managed seven goals and two assists.

With pretty much nothing left to play for this season, fans are wishing Niasse all the best on his birthday, and also hoping he gets some more chances before the season ends.
