Soccer--Everton's Traore out for "weeks rather than months"

Everton's on-loan striker Lacina Traore will be out for a number of weeks with a hamstring injury, manager Roberto Martinez said on Tuesday. The Ivory Coast international, who scored in his only appearance since joining from Monaco in January, suffered the injury in the warm-up before Saturday's Premier League defeat by Chelsea. "It is a soft tissue injury in the hamstring very similar to a previous injury he had. He was ready and had been working really hard since he arrived at the club." But Everton have been boosted by the impending return of top scorer Romelu Lukaku, who has been out with an ankle problem.
