John Heitinga has warned Everton that he could leave for greener pastures, affter admitting that he is frustrated at the lack of European football.

The Toffees have yet again missed out on competing in a continental tournament after finishing seventh in the Premier League, and the Dutchman is unhappy at the prospect of sitting at home when he could have been playing on the European stage.

“I can honestly say that I feel annoyed at having the day off when I’m on the couch watching Champions League football on T­uesdays or Wednesdays,” Heitinga said, according to The Daily Star.

“It’s the same on Thursdays with the Europa League.

“European football is a big miss for me. As a sportsman you seek the highest level, to improve and make a name for yourself. Everton is a genuine big people’s club.

“But I am ruling nothing out this summer. I have three years left on my contract and could see it through.

“But a new possibility could come up and in that case I will think about leaving.”
