Everton midfielder Tim Iroegbunam will be sidelined for “weeks” due to a foot injury, according to Paul Joyce [17 October].
Sean Dyche has also revealed that James Garner will be out due to a back issue, while Jarrad Branthwaite is also uncertain for the trip to Ipswich Town on October 19.
Orel Mangala played twice during the international break, while Abdoulaye Doucoure stays fit and available at Goodison Park.
Everton will miss Tim Iroegbunam in the upcoming weeks.
Dyche has had a difficult start to the season, winning only one of his first seven Premier League games.
However, the English manager appears to have found some consistency, as the Goodison Park team is unbeaten in their previous three league games.
One of the reasons for this could be the blooming connection between Doucoure and Mangala, which requires solidity in key parts of the pitch.
However, with games coming thick and fast, Everton’s squad depth will be tested, and it’s disappointing to see some more possibilities pick up injuries following the recent break at Finch Farm.
Dyche trusted Iroegbunam at the start of the season, but the 21-year-old was dropped after disappointing losses to Bournemouth and Aston Villa.
With little alternatives for major changes, Everton’s next match against Newcastle at Portman Road will very likely look pretty similar to the draw.
