'Felt discomfort' - Vitalii Mykolenko shares injury update as Everton issues build

Everton defender Vitalii Mykolenko has issued an injury update after he was unable to feature in Ukraine's defeat to Scotland on Wednesday night.

The 23-year-old was an unused substitute in the 3-0 loss at Hampden Park and he's revealed he felt a 'discomfort' during Everton 's win over West Ham before the international break. Any potential injury for Mykolenko will come as a huge blow for Frank Lampard as Nathan Patterson was also forced off for Scotland last night through injury.

Mykolenko has started every single one of the Blues' league matches so far this campaign and has become a key figure for Lampard since he arrived on Merseyside in January. He'll now face a waiting game to see if he's fit for another meeting with Scotland and a clash with Armenia in the Nations League over the next week.
