Everton boss Frank Lampard provides Dominic Calvert-Lewin update ahead of Newcastle United clash

Everton boss Frank Lampard remains hopeful of having Dominic Calvert-Lewin fit for the crunch Premier League game with Newcastle United after the striker returned to individual training.

The England international missed Lampard's first game in charge as the Toffees ran out 4-1 winners over Brentford, with Yerry Mina, Richarlison, Mason Holgate and Andros Townsend all finding the net.

It was the perfect start for Lampard, who was appointed as the new Everton boss earlier in the week following Rafael Benitez's departure last month.

However, he was without Calvert-Lewin after the latter trained alone at Finch Farm on Friday as he recovers from a fresh injury setback he picked up during the winter break.

Calvert-Lewin missed over three months of football with a foot issue earlier in the season but returned to the side for the clash with Brighton & Hove Albion on January 2.

Despite sitting out of the FA Cup win over the Bees, Lampard has not yet given up hope of being able to include the No.9 in the party that travels to St James' Park on Tuesday.

"I'm hopeful," Lampard said in his post-match press conference.

"I've actually had my eye off the ball on that with the game but, yesterday [Friday], he was training outside on his own.

"So hopefully he will be with the team tomorrow [Sunday].

"Whether he's ready for in three days' time, we'll have to see where he's at and if he's match, game ready, I will know more about that in the build up to the game over the next couple of days."

Calvert-Lewin has scored twice in six Premier League appearances this season after featuring for England at Euro 2020.

Meanwhile, Ben Godfrey could also miss the trip to Newcastle after he limped off with a hamstring issue against Brentford.
