Prior to Saturday’s trip to Brentford, Everton manager Sean Dyche issued a health update for winger Jack Harrison.
Injuries have prevented Harrison from making his Everton debut, but he joined the Blues on a season-long loan from Championship club Leeds United in the summer.
The 26-year-old is indeed sidelined with a hip injury, and Sean Dyche has acknowledged that he is ‘not ready’ to play again for the first squad.
The loan player is ‘back on the turf’ in training, according to the Everton manager, but he is not yet fit to play for the Blues.
Dyche gave an update on Harrison during his pre-game news conference, which was broadcast on Everton’s official YouTube page, saying:
“No, I’m not ready to begin. He has returned to the lawn after a rather prolonged predicament. He’s doing great and appears to be in fantastic shape, but he’s not quite ready to leave yet.
It will excite Everton supporters to see Jack Harrison in the starting lineup.
When Harrison becomes ready, Sean Dyche’s team will benefit from his inventiveness, but it appears we will have to wait a lot longer to see the 26-year-old wearing an Everton jersey.
During the 2-2 draw at Bramall Lane earlier this month, fellow winger Dwight McNeil made his injury comeback. Dyche has acknowledged that the 23-year-old was ‘probably’ brought back from injury a little too quickly.

The inclusion of Jack Harrison in the starting lineup will thrill Everton supporters.
Harrison’s creativity will help Sean Dyche’s club when he’s ready, but it looks like we’ll have to wait much longer to see the 26-year-old in an Everton uniform.
Prior to Saturday’s trip to the capital, the winger is “okay,” according to the Everton manager. Dwight is well, Dyche said. If I’m being completely honest, I think he came back in a little bit too quickly and I asked a lot of him in the last performance, but he will soon achieve true fitness. Brentford will be a challenging encounter for the Toffees since they have just one point, despite their uneven early-season performance, which has included three draws, one win, and one loss.
