Everton manager Frank Lampard has revealed Manchester United loanee Donny van de Beek could be fit in time to aid the Toffees in their Premier League survival push.
The Dutchman enjoyed a positive start to his temporary spell on Merseyside but thigh and groin problems have hampered his game time at Goodison Park. He missed four games before returning to the bench for the draw with Leicester City last month, however, a groin issue has kept him out of the last three.
During Van de Beek's absence, Lampard has managed to steer Everton out of the relegation zone in recent weeks, winning two of their last four matches. With three games remaining, the Toffees' boss has hinted that the 24-year-old may return from the treatment table and finish the campaign.
