'Also injured' - Paul Joyce now shares more Everton injury news before Chelsea

Paul Joyce has now shared some more injury news for Everton before they play Chelsea at home in the Premier League on Sunday afternoon.

The game at Goodison Park will be a big one not just for the club, but for Frank Lampard as well, with a manager-less Burnley moving themselves five points clear of his side on Saturday.

Very much associated with Chelsea from his playing days and a spell managing them, he will no doubt want to get one over his old team as he tries to drag his new Blues away from the dreaded relegation zone.

Taking to Twitter, The Times journalist Joyce has now shared some injury news revealed by Lampard in his pre-game press conference.

While Ben Godfrey will now be missing for a ‘few weeks’, Donny van de Beek and Andre Gomes are ‘also injured’.

It certainly is a big blow for the Merseyside club to lose three key players in the squad ahead of what is another huge match in the fight to stay in the top flight.

They have made a total of 41 appearances between them in the division, with van de Beek only joining on loan from Manchester United in the January transfer window.

Nonetheless, with Andros Townsend and Nathan Patterson also out injured, it leaves the squad relatively light not just for this game, but for the remaining crucial fixtures.
