Manchester United transfer news as Wolves midfielder Joao Gomes is linked with a move to Old Trafford in the summer window
Manchester United are reportedly weighing up a move for Wolves midfielder Joao Gomes as Erik ten Hag looks to strengthen his side.
READ MORE: Manchester United yet to make decision on Erik ten Hag future despite Gareth Southgate interest Gomes, 23, signed for the club for £12million from Flamengo and could get his first cap for Brazil on Saturday. He was called up by Dorival Junior again for the final set of internationals this season. He was also selected 12 months ago in a camp but didn't play.Gomes career Gomes is a Brazilian midfielder that came through the ranks at Flamengo. He played 117 times for their senior side before moving to England in the winter of 2023, scoring just three times and assisting four.
He got his first assist for the club in his second game in a 2-1 away win over Southampton. This year he has been a regular in Gary O'Neil's side though, starting 22 of the 24 matches he has played in. Gomes playstyle With United struggling to balance in midfield due to Casemiro's injury issues and drop-off in form, Gomes is being looked at as part of a possible new generation. With Kobbie Mainoo developing, Sofyan Amrabat struggling to have the desired impact, Mason Mount absent for most of the campaign, and Scott McTominay more of an attacking player, Gomes would be used as a deeper option.
In that sense, Gomes is certainly more of a defensive player that offers balance and control, but he will also need a partner alongside him. Although he showed box-crashing abilities against Spurs a short while ago, he has not proven himself to be that type of player consistently.
