Everton misfit Shani Tarashaj has gone on trial with former club Grasshopper Zurich.

The 23-year-old has endured a miserable time since joining the Blues from the Swiss outfit in 2016 in a £3m deal having not made a single appearance.

And Tarashaj now looks set to leave Goodison this summer.

Everton sent the Switzerland international to Eintracht Frankfurht on loan in 2016 but injury and illness restricted the attacking midfielder to just 15 appearances.

A serious knee injury wrecked his chances of playing much football last season although he returned to fitness in time to make appearances for the Blues' under-23s.

But now Tarashaj hopes to bring an end to his Everton nightmare as he goes on trial with his former club Grasshoppers.

The Swiss Super League side are currently on a training camp and Tarashaj has been given permission to join Grasshopper instead of reporting for the start of pre-season training at Everton.
