Liverpool Eyeing Former Manchester United Player Angel Gomes to ‌Strengthen Squad

Liverpool are reportedly interested in signing‌ Lille midfielder and former ​Manchester‌ United player‌ Angel Gomes to bolster their team next summer.

Gomes,‌ a product of Manchester United’s ⁣youth academy, was ‌promoted to the first team in 2017 but struggled to⁣ secure regular playing‌ time, ultimately leading to his departure⁤ to Lille in 2020.

Although⁢ he ⁣was loaned to Boavista‍ in the Portuguese ​league during ⁣his first⁣ season with Lille, Gomes returned to the club and continued to improve, becoming ⁢a key player and earning a call-up ‍to the England senior national team last August.

According to recent reports by “The Sun”, ‌Liverpool, under the leadership of manager Arne Schlot, are one of the clubs⁢ interested ⁤in acquiring⁣ Gomes to​ strengthen their squad next summer, ‌alongside Newcastle ​United, Tottenham Hotspur, and Borussia Dortmund.

However, it appears that Newcastle United are the frontrunners to secure the midfielder’s contract, while Gomes’ current contract with Lille is set ‍to expire in​ 2025.
