Everton dealt big injury blow ahead of crunch battle with Tottenham in the race for European football as striker Dominic Calvert-Lewin remains sidelined with abductor problem

Everton boss Carlo Ancelotti has revealed that Dominic Calvert-Lewin will miss Friday's crunch home clash with Tottenham in the Premier League.

Striker Calvert-Lewin remains unavailable for the fixture at Goodison Park due to the abductor problem that kept him out of Monday's goalless draw at Brighton.

Fellow England international Jordan Pickford, sidelined of late by an abdominal injury, is fit to return to action in the Spurs match, as are Allan, Andre Gomes and Josh King.
