Everton FC Blue Nose campaign

Everton FC midfielder Muhamed Besic is a true Bluenose

He normally strikes fear into the hearts of opponents with his 1,000-yard stare.

But Everton FC midfield enforcer Muhamed Besic displays his jovial side in these pictures for a new club campaign.

The Bosnia international hard-man was happy to pose in a Blues nose, reminiscent of those sported by Joe Royle’s FA Cup winners in 1995, to promote Everton In The Community’s 27th anniversary.

Fans’ favourite Besic will hope to play a key role in an important week for the Blues, with their Europa League trip to face Young Boys in Switzerland on Thursday before bidding for a crucial win in the league.

That upcoming home game against Leicester City on Sunday has been designated as the official birthday fixture of the charitable arm of the Toffees.

Everton have produced limited edition #eitc27 Blue Noses for fans to wear to the game against the Foxes and show their support.

A host of activities are scheduled for the Leicester City fixture with fun for all the family to join in with as well as the opportunity to win prizes if you are pictured wearing your nose.

These limited edition #eitc27 Blue Noses are available to buy now from Everton One and Park End Reception for a suggested donation of just £2 and will be available in store at Everton Two from Monday February 16.

Blue Noses will also be available to buy on the day of the game at various points around Goodison Park including the Fanzone.
