Everton fans react to ‘brilliant news’ on Andre Gomes

fans.

The club arranged a behind-closed-doors friendly at Finch Farm this afternoon where Andre Gomes took part for the first time since he suffered a horrific injury against Tottenham Hotspur.

The 26-year-old suffered a fractured dislocation to his ankle while playing against Spurs in November during a 1-1 draw at Goodison Park.

Gomes has played the full 60 minutes of an 11-a-side match at the club’s training complex, and has made the latest step in his recovery from injury.

The club has confirmed that he will continue to train with the first-team ahead of Everton’s clash against Arsenal next weekend.
