Team news from Everton | Former Spur doubtful for Saturday

Arnaut Danjuma is a doubt for Everton ahead of our Premier League clash at Goodison Park in Saturday's early kick-off (12.30pm UK).

The livewire forward - on loan here from Villareal in the second half of last season - impressed in a cameo off the bench in our 2-1 win against Everton on 23 December. Indeed, he had two late chances to level - one deflected shot brilliantly saved by Guglielmo Vicario while the second, almost the last action of the game, Danjuma's effort hit the woodwork, hit Vicario and bounce to safety.

However, Danjuma was forced off late in Everton's goalless draw against Fulham on Tuesday night and according to Sean Dyche, is now a doubt for Saturday.

Like Ange Postecoglou with Pape Sarr, Dyche has been boosted by the return of Senegal international Idrissa Gana Gueye from AFCON this week, but he's still without key midfielder Abdoulaye Doucoure and another important figure in the central areas, Amadou Onana, is a doubt.

Speaking in Thursday's pre-match press conference, Dyche said: "Doucs (Doucoure) is on the grass but not with us yet, so he is unlikely. We had a knock to Arnie (Danjuma) and the game is coming up quickly, so he is a doubt. Amadou is still a doubt, he's touch-and-go."

Dyche also said skipper Seamus Coleman 'is a maybe' and Ashley Young was fine after his return to action at Craven Cottage.
