Barcelona are ready to sell Andre Gomes to Everton.
West Ham are also in contact, reports Sport, though the Blues remain favourites for Gomes' signature.
The midfielder enjoyed a superb year on-loan with Everton and he is settled on Merseyside.
A fee in the region of €30m is being discussed between Everton and Barca.
The Catalans are eager to sell as they seek to raise funds for deals for Antoine Griezmann (Atletico Madrid) and Matthijs de Ligt (Ajax).
