West Ham midfielder Declan Rice available for Everton clash after shaking off virus

West Ham midfielder Declan Rice is fit to play at Everton on Saturday lunchtime after recovering from the virus that forced him to miss training with England.

Rice sat out a session while on England duty last week but the problem did not stop him being named on the bench for Monday’s 6-0 win in Bulgaria.

Keeper Lukasz Fabianski has undergone surgery on his hip injury and is likely to be out for up to three months.

Andriy Yarmolenko is expected to start at Everton, having continued his fine start to the season with a goal for Ukraine in their win against Portugal that secured Euro 2020 qualification.

The Hammers missed the chance to go third when they lost 2-1 to Crystal Palace at home before the international break.
