A number of Everton fans have laughed off suggestions that West Ham United have made an offer for Barcelona midfielder Andre Gomes.

Indeed, according to The Times, West Ham have made a £18m bid for the Portugal international, who spent the 2018-19 campaign on loan at Everton, impressing for Marco Silva's outfit.

The Irons are crying for a midfield partner for the extremely impressive Declan Rice, who was mostly partnered by an ageing Mark Noble or an out-of-form Pedro Obiang this term.

The same report has reiterated that the Toffees want to sign the 25-year-old on a permanent deal, suggesting that a battle is about to take place.

However, the Goodison faithful are not worried by reports of West Ham's interest.

Indeed, a number have taken to social media to hint that the Hammers have absolutely no chance of landing the Barcelona ace.
