​Everton boost with news on Schneiderlin injury

Everton midfielder Morgan Schneiderlin's calf injury is being reported by the club as only minor.

However, the Frenchman has only 11 days before the encounter against Liverpool at Anfield and will have to prove his fitness in training before he can be considered.

"Morgan Schneiderlin suffered a minor calf injury during the weekend's 4-0 win over Hull and will continue to be monitored at Finch Farm ahead of the Merseyside derby on Saturday 1 April," said an Everton statement.

"The Frenchman will remain under assessment by the club's medical team before a determination is reached on when he is able to return to action."
