The club have suffered a number of injury issues, but Ten Hag has confirmed that both Jonny Evans and Marcus Rashford will be available for the fixture on Saturday. However, the Dutch manager also explained that young forward Omari Forson will not feature due to injury.

“The good news is they recovered and are available,” he told reporters on Friday afternoon when asked about Rashford and Evans. “Same squad [for Everton] except for Omari Forson, who dropped out. He has an injury.”

He continued, “No team can deal with so many injuries. We want to be successful. We need to be successful, but sometimes seasons go like what we’re in now.”

Although there was hope that Rasmus Højlund would be fit to play this weekend, Ten Hag has since ruled him out, explaining that he, along with Harry Maguire and Aaron Wan-Bissaka, will instead be back for next weekend against Liverpool in the FA Cup.

Finally, he also explained that Mason Mount should be back after the March international break. Lisandro Martínez and Anthony Martial are expected back at the beginning of April.

“Mason Mount, I think he is in a good spell now, and he will return shortly, I think, after the international break.”
