Everton want to sell midfielder Andre Gomes this month but are also willing to loan him out.

That is according to TEAMtalk.

Sean Dyche not keen on Andre Gomes

A report from TEAMtalk claims that Sean Dyche is not a big fan of Andre Gomes and that Everton are hoping to offload him with some clubs outside of England still able to purchase players.

While the Toffees are looking for a permanent sale, it is believed that they would also be open to sanctioning a loan deal.

Gomes spent last season at Lille after a temporary move to the French club, but he has since returned to Everton and is practically outside the first-team picture at Goodison Park.

The Merseyside outfit bought him from Barcelona back in 2019 in a deal worth £22m.

Andre Gomes needs a permanent move away from Everton

Much was expected from Gomes when he arrived at Everton. After all, he was a Portugal international coming from Barcelona.

However, the 30-year-old has not had the best time at Goodison Park, hence his loan switch to Lille last term.

The last few seasons have been difficult for Everton as whole, as the Premier League outfit have battled for survival, sold their star forward Richarlison and watched an elite manager in Carlo Ancelotti leave the club.

When you consider all of that and the fact that it seems Gomes is not going to be a key player for Dyche, maybe the player himself also believes it is time to move on.
