Everton assistant boss Duncan Ferguson has told BT Sport that Dominic Calvert-Lewin looks as he is in ‘trouble’ after last night’s game against Tottenham Hotspur.
Calvert-Lewin limped off for Everton in the second-half, before walking straight down the tunnel.
The Toffees striker did resurface in the second-half, but he appeared to be visibly limping.
And Ferguson admits that there are fears that Calvert-Lewin could be set for a spell on the sidelines now.
“Maybe he’s tweaked his hamstring there, we’re not quite sure. He could be in a bit of trouble there,” Ferguson said.
If Calvert-Lewin is to be ruled out with injury then it would be a major blow to Carlo Ancelotti’s side.
Calvert-Lewin has been in wonderful form this season, and is their most obvious goal threat.
The Everton striker scored again last night in their 5-4 victory to bring his total to 18 for the season in all competitions.
Everton did at least bring in Joshua King on deadline day, and if Calvert-Lewin is to be out, the January signing could come into Ancelotti’s thinking.
