RAMIRO FUNES MORI has put his Everton future in doubt after admitting he needs more match action for the sake of his international career.

The defender has lost his place to Ashley Williams at Goodison Park this season and has started only two matches.

Argentine international Mori, who scored for his country in Thursday’s 2-2 draw in Peru, only moved to the Premier League side last summer.

Roberto Martinez paid £9.5m to bring him to Merseyside, but after an impressive first season, the 25-year-old has struggled for game time under Ronald Koeman.

And unless it improves, the former River Plate says he may have to look for a move elsewhere.

Mori told La Nacion: “I started playing, but then the manager decided I had to be a substitute.

“I’ll see how things are going, because if I don’t play I will look for a way out to have that continuity of which we spoke, because I’ve place in the national team also based on play.

“Although Paton [Bauza, Argentina manager] gives me great confidence, I need continuity. And to play… at Everton or elsewhere.”
