Available against Arsenal Tarkowski (concussion) will be in contention versus Arsenal on Sunday.

Back at training Tarkowski (concussion) was pictured training with the squad ahead of Sunday's matchup with Arsenal.

Impact Tarkowski has already missed out on playing every minute for the Toffees this season after he was forced to exit late against Sheffield United on Sept. 2. Still, the veteran defender figures to be a lock for the starting XI for Everton as long as he is healthy. In that role, Tarkowski figures to rack up plenty of clearances, blocks and interceptions.

In concussion protocol Tarkowski blocked a ball with his head and was forced to be taken out of the match Saturday for concussion evaluation.

Impact Tarkowski will continue to be monitored for concussion like symptoms following Saturday's draw to Sheffield United. Luckly, the defender will have the entire international break to recover, but if he cannot pass concussion protocol by Sep 17, then Miachel Keane will be the next player up to get the start at center back.

With Michael Keane (undisclosed) struggling, the team has trusted youngster Jarrad Branthwaite to partner with the veteran Tarkowski. Regardless of who the other center-back is, Tarkowski figures to be a lock for the starting XI barring an injury.
