Everton manager Sean Dyche has said he expects Alex Iwobi to spend time on the sidelines after the Nigerian sustained an injury in Sundayโs 4-0 defeat at Aston Villa.
Iwobi was replaced by Neal Maupay in the 56th minute of the encounter.
The 26-year-old is expected to undergo a test on Monday (today) to determine the severity of the injury.

Dyche however said the former Arsenal man is not likely to return to action any time soon.
โAlex weโre waiting on, but it looks like a hamstring injury. Dom, weโre hoping itโs just a knock,โ Dyche told reporters after the game.
โWith Alex, itโs unusual for hamstrings to settle down very quickly so heโs likely to be out โ but I donโt know yet.โ
