Everton manager Sean Dyche said he has bigger issues to concentrate on than striker Neal Maupay disrespecting the club on social media.
The Toffees were beaten 2-0 at home by Nottingham Forest on Sunday with Maupay writing on X afterwards:, "Whenever I'm having a bad day, I just check the Everton score and smile."
The Frenchman, 28, is currently on loan at Marseille with his last Everton appearance coming against Doncaster in August 2023.
Dyche laughed off Maupay's comments, saying: "I think it is fair to say there is a bigger picture to Everton Football Club that I am focusing on and I don't think I need to be too worried."
Asked if there would be any disciplinary action, Dyche added: "I don't think we'll be worried about that."
Dyche is trying to guide Everton away from a relegation battle, with the club sitting two points above the relegation zone after 18 matches and having won only one of their last 10 league games.
The Toffees travel to seventh-placed Bournemouth on Saturday.
Dyche also said there has been "no contact from anyone" about England striker Dominic Calvert-Lewin, with the 27-year-old being linked with a move to Atalanta.
