Branthwaite Fitness Update Ahead Of Second Newcastle Clash – Everton FC

CLUB SITETicketsPremiumStadiumEITCStoreMen27 minutes ago By EvertonShareJarrad Branthwaite is expected to be available for Everton’s Premier League clash with Newcastle United on Monday evening (8pm GMT kick-off).The England defender has been absent from the Blues’ past two games due to concussion protocols, after a clash with Chelsea goalkeeper Emi Martinez nearly a fortnight ago.Speaking in his pre-match press conference, which took place immediately after the Blues’ 3-1 win over Newcastle in the Carabao Cup at Hill Dickinson Stadium on Thursday night, Moyes said: “Jarrad should have recovered from his concussion and also the timescale which we had to abide by.”Asked if the Toffees came through the Carabao Cup tie without any further injury concerns, he added: “I think so. I know we’re talking about Monday, but you never know until you get them back in the following day [after the game] and see how everybody is – but hopefully things will be okay.”Men |Men |Men |Men |Men |Men |Men |Men |Men |Men |Men |© Copyright 1878 – 2026 Everton Football Clubsource
