Everton Desperate To Sign Star ‘Very Quickly’

Everton midfielder Andre Gomes has impressed during his loan spell from Barcelona.

Gomes is rebuilding his career at Goodison Park after struggling to shine at Barcelona.

He arrived from the Spanish giants on a season-long loan in the summer – and Everton want to keep him for longer.

But with the central midfielder turning in some impressive displays, the Toffees know they need to move quickly before their rivals swoop for the ex-Valencia man.

Sports reporter Dharmesh Sheth said on the Transfer Talk podcast: “The director of football has intimated they want to try and tie down Andre Gomes to a long-term contract.

“Everton will want to tie him down very, very quickly” Dharmesh Sheth.

“He’s come into the Premier League after having a difficult time at Barcelona.

“I actually went to the Barcelona vs Chelsea game earlier on in the year in the Champions League and Gomes, there was a lot of talk about him at the time having a few mental issues about nervousness, confidence, playing for a massive club like Barcelona.

“He got his move to the Premier League playing at Everton.

“I think that the way he’s performed, Everton will want to tie him down very, very quickly.


Andre Gomes has linked up well with his new team-mates, including star man Richarlison.

“He’s effectively put himself in the shop window as well.

“While he’s just a loan signing, a lot of other clubs could be circling to try and get Andre Gomes to sign for them.

“You don’t get to sign for Barcelona if you’re a bad player.”

Everton boss Marco Silva has openly admitted he wants to sign Andre Gomes. He said: “There are three parts to the deal – us, Andre and Barcelona.

”We have to go step by step and in the right moment.

“Of course, our owner and our board will find the right moment to try to do something and will do everything we can to achieve it, but it is not just in our hands.”
