Things somehow get worse as key duo ‘skip training’ on Tuesday amid transfer interest

Anthony Gordon and Amadou Onana failed to turn up for Everton training on Tuesday, according to Sky Sports.

It has been a turbulent few days for the Toffees, who sacked manager Frank Lampard on Monday following their 2-0 loss at West Ham United on Saturday.

Marcelo Bielsa and Ralph Hasenhuttl are the current favourites to replace the former Derby County and Chelsea boss.

There was some positive news expected to come on Tuesday with the announcement of the loan signing of Arnaut Danjuma imminent.

Onana has been a rare bright spark in Everton’s season following his big-money move from French club Lille.

The 21-year-old was linked with a move to Arsenal in the summer, and if he is available, Mikel Arteta might be on red alert with the Premier League leaders a bit light in midfield.
