Everton manager Roberto Martinez has said that Aiden McGeady will be available to make his debut for the club when they visit West Bromwich Albion in the Premier League on Monday.

The 27-year-old joined the Liverpool-based outfit from Spartak Moscow last weekend, and Martinez has included him in his squad for their fixture at The Hawthorns.

"Aiden was able to spend 24 hours a day with everyone in Tenerife, getting to know the staff and the way we worked," he told the club's official website.

"He's a player who has been de-trained in the last few weeks because he hasn't been doing any group work. It's been like a mini pre-season for him and now he is ready to have an impact on the team straightaway.

"He will be available [for Monday]. I wouldn't expect him to have 90 minutes but I do feel he is ready to be part of the group."

Everton are currently fifth in the Premier League table.
