However, an update on Barkley was much less positive, although the Spaniard also confirmed that Emiliano Martínez is expected to be fit to face Everton on Wednesday night after missing the FA Cup win over West Ham.

Unai Emery on #AVFC injuries: "Ross Barkley is two/three weeks more. (John) McGinn will need one-week minimum to be more or less close to being with us. Pau Torres will need another 6/8 weeks more." Diego Carlos is also unavailable for the trip to Everton.
