Everton striker Dominic Calvert-Lewin is delighted with the support of new manager Rafa Benitez.

Calvert-Lewin struck in victory over Southampton on Saturday.

"To hear the new manager has come in to create more chances for me, it is music to my ears," said Calvert-Lewin, who had missed pre-season with a foot injury.

"I think you saw with some of the crosses I received, it is a good sign of things to come.

"I am absolutely delighted to come back with a goal. I had three weeks off after the Euros but that is what you have to deal with as a player, I'm not complaining. My target is to outdo last season (21 goals)."
