Seamus Coleman may not be the only player to have played his final Everton game, with Idrissa Gana Gueye still out injured.

Everton play their final home game of the season on Sunday, with David Moyes admitting Gueye will not be included in the squad.

Gueye is yet to agree his contract extension at Everton despite the club being open to the prospect of keeping him on Merseyside.

“He’s back on the grass. He’s just not fit for this game. There’s an outside chance he could make Tottenham.”

With Gueye’s injury in mind, Tim Iroegbunam will be expected to retain his spot in the starting XI on Sunday.

Idrissa Gana Gueye may not play for Everton again

There are no certainties that either Gueye or Coleman will feature again in an Everton shirt.

Although the 63-year-old admitted that Gueye could return for the game against Spurs, it must be considered there will likely be some caution on the player’s side with next month’s World Cup in mind.

Moyes admitted will not be played for the sake of it, which guarantees neither player any minutes in the final two weeks.

“Seamus wouldn’t want me to say that because he wouldn’t want me to think that way. He would only think it should be getting done if it was right. That’s the way I see it as well,” said Moyes.

With Coleman departing at the end of the season, there could well be an eagerness to retain Gueye’s experience on Merseyside.

However, nothing is guaranteed in football.
