Everton boss Roberto Martinez has revealed that defender John Stones should be fit for Saturday's visit of Manchester United.
The reported Chelsea target, 21, has sat out the Toffees' last two Premier League games with a knee injury, but Martinez is confident that Stones will be ready for the weekend.
"I think he should be ready," he told Everton's official website. "Remember that John has been having a lot of quality work at Finch Farm and it will be a matter of just getting that match fitness.
"We have still got very three important days ahead of that fixture in terms of preparation so we'll get a better idea on Friday of where John is.
"I would say medically he is ready now. He's been joining the group and from a medical point of view I don't think there is a concern or worry."
Seventh-placed Everton sit three points behind United in third.
