# Everton: Patrick Boyland reveals Tom Davies injury news

**Patrick Boyland has now revealed some big [Everton](https://www.footballtransfertavern.com/everton-fc-news/) injury news before they play Chelsea at home in the [Premier League](https://www.footballtransfertavern.com/premier-league-news/) on Sunday afternoon.**

### The Lowdown: Davies training

The Goodison Park faithful have [revealed](https://twitter.com/Everton/status/1519632710406447104) that Tom Davies is back in training, after not featuring since the 0-0 draw at home to Tottenham Hotspur in [November](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/tom-davies/leistungsdatendetails/spieler/314210/plus/0?saison=2021&verein=&liga=&wettbewerb=&pos=&trainer_id=).

There will be question marks over how quickly he can get back to full fitness, and of course how much impact he can actually have with so little of the season left to play.

### The Latest: Injury update

Taking to [Twitter](https://twitter.com/Paddy_Boyland/status/1519664564773789696), The Athletic journalist Boyland has [revealed](https://twitter.com/Paddy_Boyland/status/1519664564773789696) that although Davies is now eligible for selection due to Jean-Phillipe Gbamin moving out on loan, he is still ‘some way off’ a return to the team:

*“Tom Davies \*is eligible for selection between now and the end of the season. Everton added him to PL squad list after JP Gbamin joined CSKA Moscow on loan. But midfielder, who was pictured training today, is still some way off a return.”*

### The Verdict: Bad news

Of course, the fact that Davies still seems far away from a return to action will certainly come as a big blow to Frank Lampard and his side.

Before his horrific injury, the central midfield player had managed [one goal and one assist](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/tom-davies/leistungsdatendetails/spieler/314210/plus/0?saison=2021&verein=&liga=&wettbewerb=&pos=&trainer_id=) in seven games this season, and being a local boy, knows how much it means to the supporters for the Merseyside club to stay up.

Nonetheless, with the campaign drawing nearer to a close, this is news that the Toffees would certainly not like to hear.
