Tottenham Hotspur and Angel Gomes are reportedly in talks over a Bosman move for 24-year-old LOSC Lille midfielder, a target for Manchester United and West Ham United.
According to a report by Football Transfers, Angel Gomes is the subject of interest from Tottenham Hotspur. The Lilywhites are scouring the market for a midfielder heading into the summer transfer window and have opened talks with the LOSC Lille midfielder’s representatives. However, they face stiff competition from Manchester United and West Ham United for the 24-year-old.
Angel Gomes and his Ligue 1 adventure
Angel Gomes has been one of the most underrated midfielders in Ligue 1 since joining LOSC Lille in August 2020. The London native spent his formative years with Manchester United but could not establish a foothold in the first-team squad at Old Trafford. However, joining Les Dogues has been a game-changing decision for the Englishman.
The 24-year-old has turned out nearly 150 times thus far for LOSC Lille while chipping in with ten goals and 19 assists. However, Gomes will likely embark on a new adventure in the summer transfer window after entering the final few months of his contract with the Ligue 1 outfit. The situation has piqued the attention of several well-known clubs, including Manchester United, West Ham United, and Tottenham Hotspur.
A man in demand
Manchester United will likely dip into the market for a versatile midfielder heading into the summer transfer window amid uncertainties surrounding the long-term futures of Casemiro and Christian Eriksen. So, Gomes has emerged as a viable target for Manchester United, and the English international might feel he has unfinished business at Old Trafford.
Meanwhile, West Ham United’s interest in Angel Gomes is understandable. The East London outfit might part ways with Guido Rodriguez in the summer transfer window, while Carlos Soler might not complete a permanent deal in the coming months. So, Gomes is an option worth considering for West Ham.
As for Tottenham Hotspur, the North London outfit might part ways with Yves Bissouma in the summer transfer window. So, the Lilywhites need a new midfielder, with Gomes being a viable target. The Englishman’s representatives are already in talks with Tottenham over a Bosman move.
With Tottenham eager to beat Manchester United and West Ham to the 24-year-old English midfielder’s signature, it will be interesting to see how the talks between the two parties progress. It will be interesting to see where Gomes lands when he leaves LOSC Lille this summer.
