Gourna-Douath missed Sunday's 2-2 Premier League draw against Everton after experiencing calf discomfort following Friday's training session and is scheduled to undergo an MRI within the next 48 hours, according to coach Sergej Jakirovic, per the Hull Daily Mail. "He felt his calf on Friday. He will go for an MRI, so we will see if there is something."
Analysis:Gourna-Douath suffered the setback during preparations for Sunday's matchup, raising concerns that he could face a spell on the sidelines depending on the results of his upcoming scan. The French midfielder had previously emerged unharmed from a car accident near Hull City's training ground, making this an unrelated fitness issue. Since joining Hull, he has made three Premier League appearances, including one start, recording five tackles, two interceptions and three chances created. Gourna-Douath has primarily served as a rotational option in midfield, but an extended absence would further limit coach Jakirovic's available depth in the middle of the park.
