Everton manager Marco Silva has labelled Theo Walcott’s injury as a “problem” for him and his Toffees side.
Speaking to BBC Sport following Everton’s encounter with Huddersfield Town, as cited by Metro, the manager delivered an update on the condition of the right winger.
As well as Richarlison, Theo with a problem in his hips is another problem for us.
Walcott has enjoyed a good start to the Premier League season but was forced off with an injury in the second half of Everton’s home fixture against the Terriers.
The Toffees missed Walcott’s industry and creativity from the right in the second half and were unable to fully breach the Huddersfield back-line as the visitors held them to a 1-1 draw.
Philip Billing scored the opening goal of the game for Huddersfield to make it 1-0 before Everton drew the game level almost immediately afterwards thanks to a finish from Dominic Calvert-Lewin.
Silva will be hoping that Walcott’s hip injury proves not to be too serious as he looks to help Everton continue their strong start to the season.
