Dominic Calvert-Lewin suffers ANOTHER injury blow during Everton’s defeat to Leicester just days before Gareth Southgate is due to name his England World Cup squad… with the striker ‘expected to undergo scans on a hamstring injury’ on Monday
Dominic Calvert-Lewin was substituted during Everton’s 2-0 defeat to Leicester with yet another injury, after he reportedly felt a ‘sensation in his hamstring’.
Calvert-Lewin has already missed the majority of this season, after suffering a ‘freak’ knee problem on the eve of the 2022/23 campaign, that kept him out of the Blues’ opening nine league matches.
He has since returned to action, coming back into the side for their 2-1 defeat to Manchester United in October, and has featured in six matches since, yielding one goal during Everton’s 3-0 win over Crystal Palace.

It’s been a frustrating 15 months for the 25-year-old who was ruled out of 14 games last season with a fractured toe.
Unfortunately for Everton, the injury immediately looked ominous, with Calvert-Lewin pulling up and headed down the tunnel straight away to the medical rooms.
After the match, Frank Lampard confirmed fears that the Striker had suffered a ‘hamstring problem’ and which could spell ominous concerns over his availability for the World cup.
When pressed on whether he knew how serious the injury was, the Everton boss said to Sky Sports: ‘No. We’ll scan it, it’s a sensation in his hamstring. We don’t feel it’s a bad injury, but we’ll have to wait for the scan.’
