It is news that Tottenham has a very advantageous position in recruiting Angel Gomes.
Peter O'Rourke, who works for Football Insider in England and is fluent in Tottenham's news, said on the 28th (Korea time)"Tottenham is leading the race to sign LOSC Lille star Gomes ahead of the summer transfer window," he reported.
Gomes, born in 2000, is a talent developed by Manchester United. He made his first-team debut at the age of 17 as he was evaluated to have tremendous potential. But he didn't have a place at Manchester United. Manchester United thought Gomes, who has a small frame in the tough English Premier League (EPL), would not succeed.
Gomes left Manchester United, which does not use him, for the French stage ahead of the 2020-2021 season. After moving to Lille, he left on loan to the Portuguese league and showed steep growth before starting playing for Lille in the 2021-2022 season. Gomes, who proved his potential for success in the big leagues, jumped to the starting lineup from his second season.
Gomes, who has jumped to the core of Lille, has grown into a French league-class midfielder. Originally, he grew up as a central attacking midfielder at Manchester United, but played a central midfielder at Lille. He was responsible for releasing the attack by moving back and forth between the central midfielder and the attacking midfielder.
Gomes, who has also improved defensively, also made his debut for the England national team in September 2024. It proved Manchester United wrong. Gomes' contract with Lille has been finalized after this season, and rumors are circulating that he will return to the English Premier League (EPL).
Originally, West Ham United were active. However, Football Insider "Gomes has already rejected West Ham's contract offer, and West Ham are not expected to come up with any new offers under the current circumstances. Sources say Gomes is unlikely to accept Hammers' new offer and is now considering other options", he explained.
Tottenham are preparing for a central midfield change next season. Yves Bissouma is looking to leave and is trying to supply and demand a new midfielder. It is a very good business if you can bring the England national team with no transfer fee. It is a recruit that Tottenham will like.
However, it is not 100% confirmed yet. Football Insider said clubs in France, Spain and Germany are trying to persuade 24-year-old Gomes to join the club this summer and that other clubs are also trying to sign him. Still, it is true that Tottenham has gained the most advantage as Gomes is seeking to return to England.
