Jarrad Branthwaite injury update shared by Sky Sports ahead of Ipswich Town v Everton
Jarrad Branthwaite and Vitaliy Mykolenko both took full part in training ahead of Everton versus Ipswich Town on Saturday (19 October), according to James Savundra.
The Sky Sports journalist shared via his personal X account [16 October] that the defensive duo were both involved at Finch Farm on Tuesday (15 October) as Sean Dyche’s side prepared for the visit to Portman Road.
Branthwaite has made just one start for the Toffees this season, having undergone surgery during the summer, while Mykolenko missed the 0-0 draw with Newcastle United before the international break.
“Jarrad Branthwaite and Vitaliy Mykolenko both took a full part in Everton training yesterday. Branthwaite’s one start this season coincided with the Toffees’ only win,” he wrote.
“Both missed the Newcastle draw with injury.”
Sean Dyche handed welcome boost ahead of Ipswich Town v Everton
Both defenders are integral to the way Dyche’s team plays, and the Toffees have not looked the same with James Tarkowski and Michael Keane pairing up at the back.
The full-back options have also looked stark, with Ashley Young and James Garner occupying the flanks in the 0-0 draw with the Magpies, with Seamus Coleman and Nathan Patterson unavailable.
Despite an embarrassing start to the 2024/25 campaign, losing four consecutive matches in the Premier League, Dyche finally looks to be turning things around in the club’s last season at Goodison Park.

With five points from their last three matches, beating Crystal Palace and drawing with Leicester City and Newcastle, the Toffees have moved out of the relegation zone but are far from safety right now.

Upcoming fixtures against Ipswich, Fulham, Southampton and West Ham United, before heading into another international break, could have a telling say on the Toffees’ future this season.
Adding Branthwaite and Mykolenko back into the frame will be a huge boost before facing the newly promoted Tractor Boys, with that already shaping up to be an early-season six-pointer in Suffolk.
