"Update on Bryan - he's been taken to hospital with a suspected broken leg," Everton said on their Twitter feed. "Get well soon, Oviedo Baby!".

The player has been capped 26 times by his country and was almost certain to be named in the squad for the World Cup where Costa Rica will play Italy, England and Uruguay in Group D.
