Yobo wouldn’t welcome Goodison return

Everton centre back Joseph Yobo has discouraged a return to Goodison Park following his season-long loan with Turkish side Fenerbahce.

Although Yobo referred to the Club as ´family´, the Nigerian distanced himself with a return back to Merseyside.

Yobo: "It´s a difficult one for me because Everton is like family to me. The supporters, the manager, the chairman, everyone.

"But I am enjoying myself at the moment at Fenerbahce and the most important thing is being happy, and towards the end, I wasn´t happy. I am contracted to Everton but I don´t really think I´ll be going back there.

"Because the most important thing is even if I go back there, and I am not happy, that won´t be good.

"I can´t thank the supporters enough, and I enjoyed my time at Everton. Some of my best memories in my career were at Everton and I can never forget that."
