Real Valladolid sporting director Miguel Angel Gomez admits they want to keep hold of Everton striker Sandro Ramirez.

Gomez has refused to rule out a permanent move for Sandro.

He told Radio Marca Valladolid: “Sandro has a contract with Everton, and we have to find a way around that.

“(We have to know) if he is comfortable here or not and wants to go on, then we can look at the characteristics of that operation and whether or not we can accept them."

It is further claimed that to permanently join the La Liga outfit Ramirez would need to take a wage cut and the Blues would need to help “facilitate" the move.
