Andre Gomes sustained a nasty injury in the clash against Tottenham, however, Everton boss Marco Silva has backed the midfielder to return as an even stronger player.

Gomes suffered a horrific dislocation of his ankle after a tackle by Son Heung-Min in the 1-1 draw with Everton confirming that the Portuguese will undergo surgery on Monday.

The Merseyside club has vowed all possible assistance to the former Barcelona man as he prepares for a lengthy spell on the injury table.

Speaking after the draw, Silva said, “Like you expect it was a really tough moment for us, forgetting the game and the result what’s happened with Andre of course is a tough moment for our dressing room and our players.”
