Everton injury update on Amadou Onana as Sean Dyche hails ‘outstanding’ duo vs Leeds United

Everton are hopeful Amadou Onana’s injury isn’t too serious.

The midfielder was forced off in the second half of Saturday’s 1-0 defeat of Leeds United at Goodison Park with a knee issue.

Onana has been a key player for the Toffees since arriving from Lille for a fee that could reach £33 million last summer. He’s made 23 appearances this season, scoring one goal.

And Sean Dyche feels that the Belgium international’s issue is ‘manageable’.

The Everton manager said: “He’s had a niggly knee injury. They’ll get on top of that tomorrow and Monday. I think it’s manageable as his fitness improves and game understanding improves.

“He had two more-than-able people with him today because I thought Douc (Abdoulaye Doucoure) and Gana (Idrissa Gana Gueye) were outstanding today.”
