• Portugal midfielder ‘expected to make a full recovery’• Ben Davies says Son Heung-Min ‘shaken up’ by incident
Everton have confirmed that an operation on André Gomes’s right ankle “went extremely well” after the Portugal international was injured during the draw against
Tottenham on Sunday.
Gomes sustained a fracture dislocation at Goodison Park after being fouled by Son Heung-Min, although it was a combination of an awkward landing and collision with Serge Aurier in the aftermath that caused the fracture. Players from both teams were visibly distraught as Gomes received treatment on the pitch before being taken to Aintree Hospital, with Everton confirming on Monday that the former
Barcelona and Valencia midfielder has now had surgery.
