YERRY MINA NEWS

Comes off injured against Chelsea Mina was subbed out of Saturday's match against Chelsea in the 70th minute after suffering an injury.

Impact Mina appeared to twist his ankle in a non-contact injury while dribbling in Saturday's game. He also appeared to not want to come off the pitch, but he was replaced by Ruben Vinagre nonetheless. Mina of course has a long history of injuries since joining Everton, and he was limited to just 13 appearances in the Premier League last season.

Ready for opener Mina (knock) is fit and ready for Saturday's opener, according to manager Frank Lampard.

Impact Mina is good to go Saturday after a knock forced him out of the club's friendly last week. When healthy, he's a regular in the starting XI, but injuries have kind of taken over his role in the side the past year. For now, he's healthy and figures to contend for starting minutes in the opener.

Out with a knock Mina is missing Friday's friendly with Dynamo Kyiv due to a slight knock, according to Greg O'Keeffe of The Athletic.

Impact Mina is missing Friday's friendly with Dynamo Kyiv due to a slight knock. The defender traveled with Everton to pre-season despite a calf injury toward the end of the 2021/22 Premier League campaign. The severity of Mina's issue is uncertain as well is if it's related to the calf injury.

On preseason trip Mina participated in Tuesday's preseason training session during their trip to the USA.

Impact Mina ended last season out with a calf injury and missed multiple months due to various muscular injuries over the rest of the campaign. A good preseason would surely help his case though a use of three center-backs over the final month of the campaign means a healthy Mina should have no issues starting regularly.

Impact Mina can't seem to stay healthy, as it's another muscle injury that will prevent him from closing the season. He's only been back a couple weeks from his prior injury and his absence likely means a center-back pairing of Michael Keane and Mason Holgate for at least a couple matches. Mina has less than two weeks to recover for the season finale.

Forced off with calf issue Mina was forced off in the 18th minute of Sunday's win against Leicester City with a calf issue and is a doubt for Wednesday's trip to Watford.

Impact Mina only made it 18 minutes Sunday is unlikely going to be ready to start a few days later. He had a quad injury a couple weeks ago and it's likely he pushed himself too much which led to a new muscle injury. Michael Keane and Mason Holgate are most likely to start at center-back Wednesday.

Returning from rest Everton manager Frank Lampard said Friday that Mina will be available for selection in Sunday's clash against Chelsea.

Impact Mina made his return from a quad injury that had kept him out for two months last week against Leicester, but he was rested for the following game versus Liverpool because "It was more being careful with him," according to Lampard. But Mina is back with the squad now and could be starting Sunday with Ben Godfrey (quadriceps) out.

Liverpool beats Everton 2-0 in derby, quad bid still alive

Starting versus Foxes Mina (quadriceps) will be included in the starting XI against Leicester City on Wednesday.

Impact Mina will rejoin the squad for the first time since Feb. 8 versus Newcastle United, a stretch of nine matches on the shelf due to his quadriceps issue. The central defender has been limited to just 11 appearances this year (nine starts) due to injury. Even with Mina restored to the pitch, he shouldn't offer more than mid-range fantasy value, though he is capable of providing a target on freekicks and corners.

Available against Leicester Mina (quad) will be in the squad for Wednesday's match against Leicester City, according to manager Frank Lampard.

Impact Mina will be an option Wednesday after missing the last two-plus months with a quad injury. Lampard mentioned that he'd feature, but starting him in his first match back may not be the best idea given what happened last time (he hasn't played four-straight matches since early October). Once ready, it's unknown what Lampard will do with the back line, as Michael Keane and Ben Godfrey are playing centrally now.

APRIL 19, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Back in training Mina (quad) was shown returning to the training pitch Thursday ahead of next week's match against Leicester City.

Impact Mina has almost a full week of training to get back his fitness before Everton's next match, which is a nice boost for him. He hasn't appeared since Feb. 8 because of a quad injury and there's a chance he moves immediately back into the starting XI, depending how Frank Lampard feels about his current center-back pairing of Michael Keane and Ben Godfrey.

APRIL 14, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Hopeful to return in 10 days Mina (quad) is hopeful to return to training next week and be an option for the April 20 match against Leicester, according to manager Frank Lampard.

Impact Mina has been out for two months with the quad injury and is hopeful to return before the end of the month. While he'd be a boost to the side, it's not like Everton were playing well when Mina was available, which hasn't been often this season. Mina has one clean sheet from eight starts along with two other appearances.

Weeks away from return Mina (quad) is a "few weeks away" from returning "at best," according to manager Frank Lampard.

Impact Mina doesn't need surgery, but that doesn't mean he's going to make a quick recovery. It's a muscle problem, so it's something that could last a couple months and even when a recovery period is over, there's no guarantee he'll be fit enough to play following that down time.

Doesn't need surgery Mina doesn't need surgery on his quad injury but is still expected to miss multiple months, according to manager Frank Lampard. "It won't be surgery, but it will be a lot of work b...

Impact Not getting surgery is obviously a positive for Mina, but now he has to spend the next two months rehabbing the injury by himself. Everton are a bit thin on their back line, but Lampard has enough bodies for now, as Michael Keane and Mason Holgate started at center-back in the recent win against Leeds.

Facing 8-10 week absence Mina (quadriceps) is expected to be out for 8-10 weeks with manager Frank Lampard telling reporters, "Yerry is an unfortunate injury which will probably be between 8-10 weeks."

Impact Mina's absence is a huge blow for the Everton backline considering Ben Godfrey (hamstring) is not expected to return until early-to-mid March. With the central defensive pair unavailable, Michael Keane and Mason Holgate figure to see the bulk of the starts, though Jarrad Branthwaite could also be in the mix. Even once cleared to return, Mina isn't likely to offer more than mid-range fantasy value at best.

FEBRUARY 11, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Being evaluated for quad injury Mina sustained a quadriceps injury in Tuesday's matchup with Newcastle United. Manager Frank Lampard told reporters, "With Yerry, we'll have to assess him over the next few days."

Impact With a quick turnaround before Saturday's matchup with Leeds United, Mina should probably be considered questionable at best, though it's certainly not encouraging news for the defender. With Ben Godfrey (hamstring) unavailable, Lampard may not be able to utilize the same back-three he did versus Newcastle, instead returning to a four-man backline with just two central defenders.

FEBRUARY 9, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Subbed off with injury Mina was forced off in the 35th minute versus Newcastle United on Tuesday with an apparent quadriceps injury.

Impact With Everton deploying a back three, Frank Lampard's only option to replace the towering Columbian was to use youngster Jarrad Branthwaite in central defense as a substitute. Still, it's unlikely Branthwaite would get the start versus Leeds United on Saturday if Mina can't go.

FEBRUARY 8, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Ready to go Mina already completed a full session with Everton following his return from international duty.

Impact Mina received a start under Duncan Ferguson just before the break and he'll hope to keep that role under Frank Lampard. He's struggled with injuries this season, but now that he's been healthy for a couple weeks, he could turn into a regular with Lampard now in charge.
