Everton To Assess Leighton Baines Injury

Martinez hopeful over Baines.


Leighton Baines will face a long weekend wait ahead of tests to see if he can finish the season with Everton or not.

He took a heavy knock from Southampton forward Sam Gallagher late into the second half and was seen holding his knee immediately afterwards. Shortly after that incident he was replaced by Luke Garbutt.

"We will assess Leighton Baines and see if it's a serious injury or not," he said.

"He was feeling his knee and his calf a little bit, we will assess him but it shouldn't be too bad."
