Keane sent to hospital after ugly aerial clash

Toffees manager Marco Silva confirmed that the defender was taken to hospital following his accidental clash with team-mate Idrissa Gueye

Everton defender Michael Keane will undergo assessment in hospital after a sickening aerial collision left him requiring oxygen during the 2-2 draw at Bournemouth.

Medical staff from both clubs attended to the 25-year-old and carried him from the pitch on a stretcher, wearing a neck brace, following a long pause in play.

Concern for Keane came following an unfortunate clash with team-mate Idrissa Gueye as both players attempted to clear a cross in stoppage time.
