Everton have three pieces of good news on the fitness front it seems.
Everton have seemingly had their fears over Yerry Mina appeased.
It was reported on Wednesday that the Colombian hadn’t trained at Finch Farm ahead of Saturday’s trip to Brighton & Hove Albion.
After losing four successive Premier League games and then beating West Ham United last weekend, Everton boss Marco Silva didn’t need any complications.
And Mina was exceptional against the Hammers, with the big centre-back expertly dealing with the problematic Sebastien Haller at Goodison Park.
Any injury to the former Barcelona stalwart spells problems for the Toffees boss but, according to The Echo, Mina himself is expecting to make the trip to the Seagulls, despite missing training.
The Echo adds two more pieces of good news by revealing that Fabian Delph and Morgan Schneiderlin – both of whom sat out the visit of West Ham – are expected to shake off hamstring injuries in time to face Brighton this weekend.
Silva’s side are 15th in the table. He is still a man under a lot of pressure on Merseyside, a man who needs a win this weekend, but his chances of victory go way up if Mina’s available.
