The 26-year-old Portugal international suffered the injury during Sunday’s 1-1 draw with Tottenham.
A club statement said the surgery on Monday “went extremely well”.

Gomes will recover in hospital before starting his rehabilitation under the guidance of Everton’s medical staff.
Everton’s statement added: “On behalf of Andre, the club would like to thank all Everton supporters and members of the wider football family for the overwhelming messages of support we have received since yesterday’s match.”

‘I wish we’d lost 0-5 and this didn’t happen’
Cenk Tosun, who scored Everton’s 97th-minute equaliser, said his team’s players “nearly cried” in the dressing room after the game.

“You win, you draw, you lose but all that doesn’t matter when something like this happens,” Tosun wrote on Instagram.

“I wish I didn’t score; I wish we lost 0-5 and this didn’t happen. I know you will come back stronger bro and we will be there for you.”

There was a six-minute stoppage as medics attended to Gomes.
