Everton Boss Gives Team News Update

Carlo Ancelotti has confirmed Dominic Calvert-Lewin and Allan are available to start Everton’s clash with Southampton at Goodison Park on Monday (8pm GMT).

Calvert-Lewin played the final 30 minutes of Everton’s Merseyside derby victory last Saturday, while Allan was an unused substitute at Anfield.

The Blues boss says Yerry Mina and Jean-Philippe Gbamin will miss Monday’s game, however.

Defender Mina remains sidelined with a calf problem sustained in Everton’s match against Manchester City on 17 February. Ancelotti says he expects the Colombian to be out for “at least two more weeks”.

Gbamin is continuing his rehabilitation from an Achilles injury and Ancelotti added the midfielder is “progressing well”.


Speaking at his pre-match press conference at USM Finch Farm, Ancelotti said: "Allan and Dominic are okay. They are training regularly. 

"They are available to play, for sure, from the beginning.

"Jean-Philippe Gbamin is progressing well. 

"We don’t know exactly when he can come back to train with the team – the same with Yerry Mina, also.

"I think Yerry will be out for at least two more weeks."
