Everton are planning to let Andre Gomes leave the club in 2024, sources have told Football Insider.
The 30-year-old is yet to play a single minute this season due to injury and is out of contract at the end of the 2023-24 campaign.

Sean Dyche has given no timeframe as to when he could next be available play, amid fears that his problems are chronic and he could struggle to reach his previous level ever again.
Gomes is also a big earner, with his contract believed to be worth around £120,000-a-week.
