Everton defender Jarrad Branthwaite needs a hamstring operation and is set for an extended spell on the sidelines.
The 23-year-old has yet to feature for David Moyes' side this season after sustaining an injury in pre-season.
The injury was described as a 'minor niggle' in July, but the England international has had a setback and now needs surgery.
Everton said, external: "Following specialist consultation, it has been determined the defender will undergo a surgical procedure to address the issue.
"Branthwaite will commence a structured rehabilitation programme under the supervision of the club's medical team following the operation."
