Cenk Tosun has the potential to become a big Everton success, according to Everton coach Duncan Ferguson.

Duncan Ferguson has backed Cenk Tosun to become a success at Everton after extra one-on-one training sessions with the player.

Tosun has scored four goals in his last three games for Everton, having initially gone his first four matches for the club without a goal after signing from Turkish side Besiktas for £27m.

He paid tribute to Everton "legend" Ferguson for his upturn in form, having undergone extra shooting practice and physical training with the Toffees coach.

Ferguson believes Turkey international Tosun just needed time to adapt to English football.

"He's settling in well," Ferguson told Sky Sports News. "I think it took him a bit of time to adjust to the Premier League but he's looking good.

Duncan Ferguson is used to soaring over Goodison Park to win headers - but not via a zip-line. He took a hair-raising trip on Saturday in aid of the Everton in the Community.

"We're obviously made up that he's scored a few goals now. Hopefully that continues.
