Everton boss Carlo Ancelotti seems confused when asked about Luke Garbutt... but defender who has been on loan at Ipswich all season and hasn't played since 2015 is able to laugh it off after leaving Goodison Park after 11 years

Everton manager Carlo Ancelotti was perplexed when asked about released defender Luke Garbutt in his press conference on Tuesday.

Ancelotti, who arrived at Goodison Park in December, replied with 'Who?' when asked for a few words on Garbutt, before saying 'I don't understand this question'.

The 27-year-old has been on loan at Ipswich Town all season and has not played for the first-team since 2015, making 12 appearances in total for the Toffees.
