FFC brings you up to date on all Everton injury-related news.
Everton have had a turbulent 2023/24 season, with the Premier League season approaching the conclusion of April. The Toffees were docked ten points for FFP violations, but they have now climbed out of the bottom three and had the penalty lowered to six points.
However, another two points were deducted, making matters more interesting.
With the danger of relegation looming, the Merseyside club will be desperate to keep its players fit, and Football FanCast is here to keep you up to date on the latest injury news from Goodison Park.
Sean Dyche provided a mixed injury update before of their Friday night match against Luton Town at Kenilworth Road.
The good news is that Seamus Coleman (groyne), Dominic Calvert-Lewin (sickness), and Beto (concussion) are expected to be available for the trip to Luton, while James Tarkowski is also expected to be in contention after missing training earlier this week as his partner prepares to give birth.
Lewis Dobbin returned to competitive action for the Toffees’ U21s this week after recovering from a long-term ankle ailment.
Dyche did, however, disclose that Vitalii Mykolenko will miss the rest of the season after damaging ankle ligaments in the win over Liverpool, and Nathan Patterson will also miss the rest of the season due to a hamstring injury sustained in mid-April.
Meanwhile, Dele Alli is a long-term absentee due to an ongoing groyne problem.
Vitalii Mykolenko’s season is ended when he injured ankle ligaments during the Merseyside derby in late April. The Ukrainian appeared to twist his leg awkwardly and spent the remainder of the first period at Goodison Park before being removed before halftime.
Due to ligament injuries, he will miss the Toffees’ remaining games throughout his recuperation.
