Duncan Ferguson has confirmed that Tyler Onyango has returned to Everton after undergoing an operation for a hamstring picked up while playing for Forest Green Rovers.
Onyango initially started the season at Burton Albion, but was recalled by the Blues in January before joining Ferguson’s side on transfer deadline day. The midfielder, who is under contract at Everton until June 2025, made 24 appearances in all competitions for the Brewers.
The England youth international made his Forest Green debut in Ferguson’s first game in charge, a last-gasp 2-1 defeat to Shrewsbury Town, before going on to play the full 90 minutes against Peterborough United a week later.
