Fresh blow for Everton

Heracles Almelo striker Everton is set for a further spell on the sidelines.

Heracles Almelo striker Everton is set for a further spell on the sidelines.

The Brazilian forward returned from injury against Willem II at the start of the month, a game in which he scored a late equaliser.

He was then forced to sit out the weekend loss at RKC Waalwijk after reporting discomfort in his leg.

And tests on Tuesday have revealed a muscle injury which is set to sideline the striker until the end of the month.
