Jakupovic, who won his sole Switzerland cap in 2008, was a free agent after leaving Leicester in the summer to end a five-year spell with the club.
England stopper Pickford suffered a thigh injury in Everton’s 0-0 draw with Liverpool on September 3 and is set to be out until after the forthcoming international break.
And Lonergan is expected to be sidelined for the next few weeks as he recovers from a knee issue.
The Goodison Park outfit also have Asmir Begovic in their squad.
