Ghana winger Christian Atsu insists Everton are focused on their Uefa Europa League clash with German Bundesliga side Wolfsburg on Thursday night. 

Everton manager Roberto Martinez could start the Chelsea loanee a starting role as the Toffees seek victory over the German guest at the Goodison Park.

The Merseysiders find themselves in arguably the most challenging section, Group H, kicking off at home against last term's fifth-placed Bundesliga team, VfL Wolfsburg, on Thursday before also facing a LOSC Lille side who were third in France's Ligue 1 and Russia's FC Krasnodar. Yet Atsu is eager to embrace the challenge.

"We are focused on getting a good win against Wolfsburg and that is the focus now," Atsu said after Everton's training session.

"Yeah, for me I don’t like to rush too much because there is more for me to learn here and I believe that once I get the chance I will prove myself."

Atsu is yet to make a start a Premier League game for Everton but could well play tonight.
