Everton also face Chelsea, Leicester City, Arsenal and Manchester United in the month of December. Everton put out a statement stating that Digne suffered from an injury during a training session and he will undergo a surgery.<\/p>\n<p>The statement read, <strong>\u201cThe left-back was injured during a training session at USM Finch Farm this week,\u201d\u00a0 <\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>\u201cDigne is due to undergo surgery on Monday before commencing his rehabilitation under the care of the club\u2019s medical staff.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>There is no update on how long Digne will be out of action for the Toffees.<\/p>\n<p>The 27 year old has been a major part of Everton\u2019s rebuild and has solidified himself as one of the most reliable fullbacks in the league. Digne is fairly decent both going forward and as a defender. He will be a big miss to the club, considering the tough run of fixtures that lie ahead.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>An injury to defender Lucas Digne will be a major blow to Everton, as they are up against Leeds United\u2026<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":119,"featured_media":32671,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5],"tags":[1141,1142,218],"class_list":["post-10163","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-football","tag-everton-fc","tag-leeds-united","tag-premier-league"],"reading_time":"1 min read","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/10163","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/119"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=10163"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/10163\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/32671"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=10163"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=10163"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=10163"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
