Under a picture of himself with 'Thanks Everton' on Instagram he said: 'First of all I would like to thank the fans, and all the players who were with me and always supported me at all times, since I arrived I was always well received and treated as if I was really a member of the family.
'Unfortunately you who support me and not those who appear here to spread the words of hate DON'T KNOW HALF of what happens behind the scenes, I wanted to be more clear but unfortunately TODAY I can't, the message I leave today is of gratitude and you will always be special.
'Everton is GIANT, has an incredible history and has the structure and capability to return to be and to conquer everything that it has been and conquered.
'I'm satisfied about how much I dedicated myself and did my best to be the best of me in all training and games, and I ask God to continue
