Everton have issued a positive update on Andre Gomes after his horror injury in yesterday’s 1-1 draw at home to Tottenham.
The Portuguese midfielder was stretchered off in worrying scenes at Goodison Park after fracturing his ankle following a challenge from Son Heung-Min.
But a Toffees statement today read: “Everton Football Club can confirm Andre Gomes underwent surgery to repair a fracture dislocation to his right ankle earlier today and the procedure went extremely well.
“The Portugal international, who sustained the injury in yesterday’s Premier League fixture with Tottenham Hotspur, will now spend some time recovering in hospital, before returning to USM Finch Farm to start his rehabilitation under the guidance of the Club’s medical staff.
“The 26-year-old is expected to make a full recovery.
“On behalf of Andre, the Club would like to thank all Everton supporters and members of the wider football family for the overwhelming messages of support we have received since yesterday’s match.”
