Sandro Ramirez has an uncertain future at Everton after falling down the pecking order at Goodison Park. The 23-year-old has scored just one goal in 16 appearances since joining Everton from Malaga in 2017 and has spent the last 18 months on loan at Sevilla (January 30, 2018 – June 30, 2018) and Real Sociedad (August 30, 2018 – June 30, 2019).

Sandro has made just one appearance for Everton since December 2017 and is expected to be on his way out of the club this summer. Marco Silva has a problem, however, as clubs aren’t queuing up to sign the striker after a forgettable stint back in his home country. The centre-forward failed to score a goal on loan at Sociedad and lost his place during the last few weeks of the season.

Everton agreed a £10m buying option for Sandro with Sociedad, but his poor form at the Anoeta Stadium has put off the Spaniards from making a move this summer. The 23-year-old nearly had his loan move cut short midway through the season, such was his ineffectiveness under former manager Asier Garitanoc.

Sandro has two years remaining on his contract, is unwanted by Silva and doesn’t have clubs wanting to sign him on a permanent deal. Everton are caught between a rock and a hard place after his disastrous season on loan.
