Everton star Kevin Mirallas out for EIGHT weeks and will miss Man Utd clash
EVERTON have been left reeling after Kevin Mirallas was ruled out for up to eight weeks with a torn hamstring.
Mirallas pulled up in agony in the 29th minute of the 1-1 draw with Liverpool on Saturday as he tried to run away from Jordan Henderson and had to be replaced by Aiden McGeady.
The Belgium attacker, who will be 27 this month, was sent for scans which revealed the extent of the damage.
Mirallas has emerged as a key performer for Everton, who travel to Russia today for the Europa League tie with Krasnador, and his absence comes with Ross Barkley continuing his recovery from a knee injury.
