Impact Onana is working his way back from a calf injury that has sidelined him for multiple weeks. The midfielder is now set to return, or is nearing a return, though it's not clear what his role will look like on his return with the team in flying form.

Impact Onana is missing his third straight match, having yet to recover from a calf injury. This shouldn't be a surprise, as manager Sean Dyche implied that the player would most likely return in their match against Chelsea on Sunday.

Impact Onana has already missed three of the Toffees' last four contests due to his lingering calf problem and could be in danger of missing another two matches due to the busy December schedule.

Set to miss out Saturday Onana (calf) is not expected back in the squad against Nottingham Forest on Saturday.

When fit, the midfielder has been a lock for the starting XI, featuring in all 11 of his appearances this season. In those contests, Onanan registered 14 shots (three on target), 28 tackles and 10 clearances. With Onana still out, Idrissa Gueye should continue to fill his spot in the midfield.

Won't return Sunday Onana (calf) won't return for Sunday's clash with Manchester United, according to manager Sean Dyche. "Ama's calf, I don't think will be right. It's still sore."

Impact Onana won't be back for Sunday's clash with Manchester United, a major loss in the heart of the midfield.

Still battling calf issue Onana has withdrawn from Belgian camp with a nagging calf issue, something he's dealt with for a couple weeks.

Impact Onana missed the Nov. 4 contest with the problem and then he only made it 45 minutes in the win against Crystal Palace just before the break. The hope is that an extra week of rest will get him closer to fit, but there is a worry that he won't be ready to start coming out of the break, pointing to a return for Idrissa Gueye in the midfield.

Comes off with calf issue Onana was forced to leave Saturday's matchup with Crystal Palace due to his lingering calf problem, per Patrick Boyland of The Athletic.

Impact Onana was subbed off at halftime with Idrissa Gueye stepping into the midfield role. With the international break, Onana should have the time he needs to fully recover from his calf problem. If he can get back to 100 percent, Onana should be in contention to maintain his place in the starting XI versus Manchester United on Nov. 26.

Impact Onana played a key role in an effective Everton midfield on Saturday that dismantled Bournemouth. He managed to place a shot-on-target and engaged in four tackles. The regular starting Belgian is yet to score or assist in the EPL this season, but based on this performance it is only a matter of time before he improves these statistics.

Fixture in starting XI Onana has featured in all four matches for Everton this season in which he has recorded seven tackles (six won), three shots (one on target) and five chances created.

Impact Onana is unlikely to offer much in the way of offensive upside, considering he scored just one goal in 33 contests (29 starts) last season. Still, the midfielder should maintain his place in the starting XI moving forward where he figures to rack up plenty of tackles, interceptions and clearances.

Impact Onana has logged a combined three minutes in the team's last two contests, having seemingly been supplanted in the starting XI by James Garner. If he can break his away back onto the pitch, Onana should tack up plenty of defensive stats, including tackles, clearances and interceptions.

Ready for Monday Onana (illness) has been training this week and is good to go for Monday's match versus Brighton & Hove Albion, confirms manager Sean Dyche.

On bench after illness Onana has been dealing with an illness in the lead-up to Monday's clash with Leicester City and will start the match on the bench.

Impact Considering Onana has started 27 of his 29 appearances for Everton this season, his absence from the starting XI was an initial surprise. Barring any lingering effects, the Belgian should be in the mix to reclaim his spot on the pitch versus Brighton on May 8. For now, James Garner will slot into Onana's spot in the midfield.

Could be option against Newcastle Onana (groin) is back on the grass and is a late test for Thursday's match against Newcastle, according to manager Sean Dyche.

Impact Onana is at least back on the pitch and taking parts in training, but it doesn't sound like he's fully fit just yet. It's unlikely he'll start his first match back from a groin injury, but Abdoulaye Doucoure is available again following suspension, so he's set to rejoin the XI, possibly with James Garner still there, as well.
