Striker Romelu Lukaku is likely to return for Everton's Premier League clash at Bournemouth this weekend, manager Ronald Koeman has said. The Belgian international, who has bagged four league goals this season, missed Everton's 2-0 League Cup defeat to Norwich on Tuesday with a toe injury. Koeman put to rest fears that Everton's top goal scorer this season would face an extended layoff, however. Koeman also shut the door on out-of-favour striker Oumar Niasse, claiming the Senegal international had no future at Goodison Park. Everton are second in the Premier League standings after winning four of their opening five games.
