Season › 2013-14 › News Deulofeu out until the New Year Lyndon Lloyd , 16 December, 0comments | Jump to most recent Forward expected to miss 'a few weeks' Everton have revealed that they expect Gerard Deulofeu to miss "a few weeks" of the season after the forward injured a hamstring in Saturday's match over Fulham. The prognosis is better than fears that he would be out for months with a more serious muscle tear but still deprives Roberto Martinez of a valuable asset at an important time in the campaign. The Spaniard pulled up clutching his thigh with an hour gone of the 4-1 win and had to be stretchered off. A club spokesperson said: "Scans have now shown the extent of the soft tissue injury in his right hamstring, which is likely to keep him out for a few weeks." About these ads © ToffeeWeb
