“I love to run, I love to press”: Röhl’s high-energy blueprint to win more minutes at Everton this season | OneFootball

Merlin Röhl is hoping his impressive pre-season can earn him a regular role in the Everton side this season.

The German has been a positive performer during the summer schedule and scored during the Toffees’ 2-1 win at Hamburg over the weekend. Röhl has featured in a variety of positions across the pre-season games, and featured from the right in Germany.

The 24-year-old hopes his flexibility can earn him more regular minutes in 2026/27, after starting only six games in the Premier League last season.

Röhl outlined what he feels he can bring to the Everton side this season and said his ambition is to nail down a starting spot.

“I am the type of person that will always look for things that we can do better,” Rohl told evertonfc.com after the win over Hamburg.

​“No matter how good we are. I want to be better every game, and we will speak about some things after the games. Overall, it was a good win. Hopefully we can improve in the next game.
