Tottenham have agreed personal terms with Andre Gomes over a transfer… https://t.co/MLpr0T1MPU (@GaffneyVLC)
The report claims that Spurs are set to offer a fee in the region of €30m to land the Portuguese international – which Barcelona will then accept as they look to cash in on him this summer.
Gomes joined Everton on loan from Barcelona at the start of the season and has become a star at Goodison over the course of the campaign.
Can Everton replace him in the summer? Definitely. The club have shown now that they are able to make shrewd additions in the transfer market, you just have to look at the likes of Lucas Digne, Bernard and Gomes, himself.
Of course, Gomes is a superb player and there is no guarantee that anyone who comes in will be better than him, but the fans should have faith in the work that is going on behind the scenes to improve the club and progress.
There are plenty of talented midfielders out there who would be willing to sign for Everton – with the attraction of a push for Europa League football and the general allure of the Premier League.
That being said, here are a few players who Everton could turn to if they need to replace Gomes…
