Everton Injury Updates on Jarrad Branthwaite, Seamus Coleman, Nathan Patterson, Armando Broja, and Youssef Chermiti.

Here’s an updated injury report for Everton, covering Jarrad Branthwaite, Seamus Coleman, Nathan Patterson, Armando Broja, and Youssef Chermiti.

Everton will be aiming for their first points of the 2024-25 Premier League season when they face Aston Villa on Saturday (17.30 BST).

The Toffees have struggled so far, having lost all three of their opening matches, the most recent being a 3-2 defeat to Bournemouth, where they surrendered a two-goal lead in the final minutes.

**Jarrad Branthwaite – Groin Injury**
The absence of Branthwaite has been significant for Everton in these initial games. After a stellar 2023-24 season, where he was named both Players’ Player and Young Player of the Season, his groin injury has kept him sidelined. Sean Dyche mentioned that a behind-closed-doors match during the international break was unlikely for the 22-year-old, indicating that his return might still be a while away.

**Nathan Patterson – Hamstring**
Patterson is still on the mend from hamstring surgery that he underwent in April. Everton has been cautious with his recovery, ruling out participation in any games during the international break due to the severity of the injury.

**Youssef Chermiti – Foot**
Chermiti had a promising pre-season before needing minor surgery on his foot. The club has not provided a specific timeline for his return.

**Armando Broja – Foot**
Broja, who joined Everton on loan from Chelsea at the last minute on deadline day, is currently dealing with a foot injury. He recently shared that his recovery is progressing well, but he’s not expected to return until mid-October.

**Stanley Mills – Knee**
Mills, who sustained a significant knee injury during a successful loan spell at Oxford United, is in the process of recovery. The 20-year-old will likely rejoin the under-21s before Dyche assesses whether he’s ready for first-team action.
