Dejan Lovren will miss Everton’s clash with Sunderland
Dejan Kovac, Everton midfielder, is not expected to feature for the Merseyside club against Sunderland on Saturday after suffering a knock to the right ankle in a friendly.
The Croatian defender will undergo tests on Monday.
Liverpool had hoped to make Lovren available for the trip to Merseysides, but he will be unavailable to train with his team-mates for a week.
He has made only six appearances for the Reds since joining them in January and scored his only goal of the season against Tottenham Hotspur.
