Everton are working hard to get rid of this 30-year-old`….

This month, Everton is still making a lot of effort to get rid of a 30-year-old.

Andre Gomes may yet be sent packing by Everton this month.

That information comes from TEAMtalk, which also claimed that the Toffees would prefer a permanent departure for the midfielder.

In 2018, Gomes temporarily transferred from Barcelona to Everton before making the switch permanently in a £22 million deal a year later.

Last season, the former Portugal international had a productive loan with Lille, scoring three goals and

While the report claimed that Everton would only sanction his exit if they had brought in a replacement, they are now said to be looking to move him on while some transfer windows remain open.

Could Everton still sell Andre Gomes?

The Toffees are eager to earn a fee from Gomes‘ departure, though they would apparently be willing to let him leave on loan – despite his contract expiring next summer.

The midfielder is said to be raking in a whopping £120,000-a-week on Merseyside so it comes as no surprise that the club are desperate to shift him from their books.

The report claims that Gomes has received interest from Saudi Arabia, while he has also held talks with clubs in Greece, Russia and Qatar.

The Saudi transfer window is set to close on Thursday, while clubs in Greece, Russia and Qatar can still compete for Gomes’ signature beyond this week.

Sean Dyche clearly doesn’t fancy the 30-year-old in his first-team plans, however his potential exit would leave them very light in the middle of the park. Alex Iwobi’s move to Fulham may mean Gomes has to stick around to make up the numbers.
