Everton confirm Vitalii Mykolenko ruled out for the season | OneFootball

Everton have confirmed that Vitalii Mykolenko will miss the remainder of their season.

The Ukraine international has been sidelined since suffering an ankle injury during last week’s Merseyside derby win over Liverpool.

It has now been revealed that Mykolenko is out for the Toffees’ final three games of the Premier League campaign but will not require surgery on the issue.

“Vitalii Mykolenko suffered an ankle ligament injury during the 2-0 Merseyside derby win against Liverpool last Wednesday,” confirmed a club statement.

“The Blues left-back, who came off at half-time during the clash at Goodison Park, has been assessed by a specialist, who revealed the Ukraine international will not require surgery.

“However, Mykolenko will not be available for Everton for the remainder of the season.”

It was reported on Monday that Mykolenko’s injury could put paid to his involvement at Euro 2024.
