# Everton: Adam Jones reveals big Dominic Calvert-Lewin injury boost

**The Liverpool Echo journalist Adam Jones has revealed a big injury boost for [Everton](https://www.footballtransfertavern.com/everton-fc-news/) involving Dominic Calvert-Lewin.**

### The Lowdown: Lampard confident

Frank Lampard revealed after the 1-0 win against West Ham United at Goodison Park in the Premier League that he was [confident](https://www.footballtransfertavern.com/everton-fc-news/calvert-lewin-injury-latest-southampton-return-lampard/) that Calvert-Lewin would be available against Southampton after the international break.

He left him out of the squad as a precaution, as he did not want to risk aggravating the injury the striker had already picked up.

### The Latest: Still likely to be involved

Taking to Twitter, Jones has revealed that Calvert-Lewin is ‘[still in line to be involved](https://twitter.com/Adam_Jones94/status/1572901288744198144)‘ for the Merseyside club against the Saints after the international break, despite [rumours](https://www.liverpoolecho.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/dominic-calvert-lewin-everton-injury-25075747) of a setback.

Expanding in his article for [The Liverpool Echo](https://www.liverpoolecho.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/everton-calvert-lewin-injury-breaking-25080159), the journalist added that the Toffees are simply being ‘cautious’ with him after he felt some ‘tightness’ in a training session at Finch Farm recently.

### The Verdict: Big boost

Of course, it will be a big boost for Lampard and his team if they can call upon Calvert-Lewin against Ralph Hasenhuttl’s side.

Neal Maupay did well to score the winner for the Blues against the Hammers last time out, but the Englishman offers a different kind of threat.

Calvert-Lewin reached double figures for goals in the top flight in each of the two seasons before his injury-hit campaign last term ([Transfermarkt](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/dominic-calvert-lewin/leistungsdatendetails/spieler/306024/plus/0?saison=&verein=29&liga=&wettbewerb=GB1&pos=&trainer_id=)), and will no doubt be desperate to rekindle that kind of form upon his return to the pitch.

Nonetheless, the 25-year-old will be hungrier than ever to impress ahead of the FIFA World Cup in Qatar in November, where he will be hoping to make a late dash into Gareth Southgate’s England squad.
