“It’s a Massive opportunity for us against West Ham as he will definitely be at starting XI”- Sean Dyche confirms Everton player has regain total fitness and returns to training ground ahead of West Ham clash
Everton will visit London Stadium on Saturday (9 November) to face West Ham in the Premier League, looking to get back on track after a 1-0 loss to Southampton last week.
The Toffees were left frustrated after the defeat, with manager Sean Dyche expressing surprise that his side didn’t manage to take anything from the game. Prior to that, Everton had gone unbeaten in their previous five league matches.
West Ham are currently struggling, making this a prime opportunity for Everton to claim all three points away from home and further damage their rivals’ confidence.
Everton will also be bolstered by the return of a key player.
Dyche Provides Injury Update on Doucoure
Ahead of the match, Dyche confirmed that midfielder Abdoulaye Doucoure is fit again and could feature against West Ham. The 31-year-old missed the Southampton game but has now fully recovered.
Dyche had initially been concerned that Doucoure could be sidelined for a few weeks, but the midfielder’s rapid recovery has given the manager a boost. Dyche commented: “[Doucoure] has got a chance. He’s done very well to recover – we were worried at first that it would be a number of weeks, but that’s settled down really quickly, so he’s got a chance.”
Key Players Still Missing for Everton
In addition to Doucoure’s return, Everton also received a boost with Iliman Ndiaye participating in training this week. Ndiaye, who suffered an injury early in the game against Southampton, has been a standout performer this season, and his potential return to the starting lineup would be a major lift for the club.
However, Everton will still be without some key players. Captain Seamus Coleman is ruled out with a minor hamstring injury, while James Garner (back), Tim Iroegbunam, and Youssef Chermiti (both foot injuries) remain sidelined for the trip to West Ham.
