Senegal forward Oumar Niasse will leave Everton when his contract expires at the end of the month.

The 30-year-old signed from Russian club Lokomotiv Moscow in a £13.5m deal in 2016 but only managed 12 goals in 65 league appearances for the Toffees.

Niasse had half a season on loan at Hull in 2017, scoring five goals, and another at Cardiff in 2019.

Curacao defender Cuco Martina, 30, and English left-back Luke Garbutt, 27, will also leave the club.

Meanwhile, defender Leighton Baines, 35, has agreed a short-term contract extension to the end of the season as he considers a one-year deal.

France international Djibril Sidibe has extended his loan from Monaco to cover the remainder of the campaign.
