Jesper Lindstrom has endured a torrid time on loan at Everton.
The Danish winger is yet to score or assist for the Blues despite featuring 23 times in the Premier League since joining from Napoli last summer.
He has featured a lot more under David Moyes, primarily due to injuries to Iliman Ndiaye and Dwight McNeil but his impact has been lacking in terms of end product.
The Toffees have the option to buy the 25-year-old for £16.6million upon the completion of his loan spell but that seems unlikely given the latest developments at Goodison Park.

Lindstrom set for Everton exit
Everton are set to appoint Angus Kinnear to replace Kevin Thelwell in the summer as the club transitions to a new sporting structure behind the scenes.

A report from Paul Joyce (7 March) claims that the incoming man “is regarded as being commercially savvy, having overhauled Leeds’ retail operation with huge success, while the Yorkshire club’s recruitment in recent windows has also been strong.”
That could spell disaster for Lindstrom’s chances of earning a permanent stay on Merseyside.

Kinnear set to axe Lindstrom in ‘savvy’ move
It is an exciting new era behind the scenes at Everton with the Friedkin Group implementing change and the upcoming move to the new Bramley-Moore Dock Stadium.
The latest move will do little to swell expectations ahead of what promises to be a busy summer transfer window for the Blues.

Lindstrom has failed to contribute for the Blues.
There are 13 senior players out of contract or leaving upon completion of their loan agreements and whilst it would make sense to keep some around for stability but Lindstrom will probably not be one of them.
Paying such a high fee for a player who has not contributed a single goal or an assist would go against the ‘savvy’ description of Kinnear.
It seems as though the Blues ace may be looking for a new club in the summer as he failed to score in 29 appearances for Napoli last season after a £30m move.
