Everton boss Brain Sorensen has decided to bring back teenage sensation Issy Hobson from her loan spell at Nottingham Forest in WSL2. Sorensen explained his decision to recall Hobson due to a number of injuries within the squad, leaving them short on defensive options. Despite showing promise in a League Cup game for Forest against Newcastle, Hobson had limited game time, prompting Sorensen to bring her back to Everton where she can continue her development.
Hobson, who made a name for herself with a spectacular goal against Arsenal last season, is excited to be back at Everton and is eager to prove herself in the first-team squad. Sorensen has faith in the youngster’s defensive abilities but acknowledges that she still has room for improvement in her decision-making and technical skills. However, he is confident that Hobson will get the necessary game time to refine her game and make an impact in upcoming fixtures against top teams like Manchester United and Manchester City.
Despite the challenges of breaking into the competitive WSL, Sorensen believes that Hobson has the potential to shine and is looking forward to seeing her progress in the coming weeks. Everton fans can expect to see Hobson feature in the upcoming matches, starting with a showdown against Leicester City at the King Power Stadium.
