EVERTON SIGNS BARCELONA’S ANDRE GOMES FOR £22m

Everton have completed the signing of Andre Gomes from Barcelona in a £22million deal following a successful season on loan.

Gomes was also linked with Premier League rivals Tottenham and West Ham but he has signed a five-year contract at Goodison Park.

The Portugal midfielder appeared 29 times for Everton in all competitions last season after joining on a deadline-day loan in August 2018.

In other news, Valencia also confirmed the arrival of Jasper Cillessen from Barcelona in a deal that is expected to see fellow goalkeeper Neto head to Camp Nou.

The Copa del Rey winners, who beat Barca in the final, posted a video on social media seemingly showing Netherlands international Cillessen collecting a pair of orange clogs bearing the Valencia badge.
