Carlo Ancelotti believes there is a 'strong possibility' Joshua King will make his full Everton debut against Fulham on Sunday.
King was introduced from the bench against Leeds United and Manchester United after arriving on transfer deadline day in February but was cup-tied for the win over Tottenham Hotspur in midweek.
With Dominic Calvert-Lewin suffering a hamstring complaint in the same game, Ancelotti confirmed the Norwegian could be set for his first Premier League start since he scored in a win against Everton for Bournemouth on the final day of last season.
The Italian said: "I think Joshua King can play in that [central striker] position, but as a winger also.
"Of course, without Calvert-Lewin there is the possibility to put him in the first XI. It is a strong possibility, of course. His physical condition is good and his adaptation to the team is working well."
Ancelotti also believes Richarlison is 'back' after his two-goal performance against Tottenham.
The striker had previously bagged just once in his previous nine appearances in all competitions.
Ancelotti said: "I think we can say he is back. He had a lot of problems in the first part of the season but after the performance against Tottenham we can say he is back.
"It is pleasing because everybody knows he is a really important player for us."
