David Moyes confirms Jack Grealish stress fracture before Leeds United visit, Ndiaye and Gueye to be checked | OneFootball

David Moyes says Jack Grealish faces a significant setback with no return date yet as Everton prepare to host Leeds United on Monday night.

"It's not for me to give the timescales, and we've not got it yet from the doctors. He's got a stress-fracture in his foot," he said on Everton’s official website.

"It's a big blow because he's been hugely important to us. We're in close contact with Manchester City, so we'll see how that works as we go along, and as we get more decisions from the specialists."

"They walked in the building about half an hour ago ... I've not had a chance to greet them and congratulate them," Moyes said of Iliman Ndiaye and Idrissa Gueye. The pair will be assessed over the weekend.

"Jarrad Branthwaite and Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall are back training. Charly Alcaraz is back in training. They're certainly getting much closer to it, that's for sure."

Michael Keane serves the final match of his three-game ban after his straight red card in this month's 1-1 draw against Wolves for pulling Tolu Arokodare's hair.
