‘We wait to see’ – Everton star misses training ahead of Ipswich Town clash as director gives injury update
Senegal have confirmed that Everton forward Iliman Ndiaye missed the country’s latest training session.
Ndiaye has made a fine start to his Toffees career after arriving from Marseille for around £15million in the summer transfer window. He has netted two goals in nine appearances for Sean Dyche’s side so far and become a regular starter on the left flank.
Everton are set to be without Armando Broja and Youssef Chermiti (both foot) against Ipswich at Portman Road. They are also sweating on the fitness of key defensive pair Jarrad Branthwaite (thigh) and Vitalii Mykolenko (calf) after they missed a 0-0 draw against Newcastle United.
Seamus Coleman (calf) continues his recovery but there could be a possibility that Nathan Patterson makes a return to the squad for the first time in six months. The right-back has now played three times for the Blues’ under-21s having suffered a serious hamstring injury last April.
Everton head to Ipswich having gone unbeaten in their past three games. Dyche’s men are 15th in the Premier League table – one point and one place above the Tractor Boys.
