Gomes had always been a promising young talent at Manchester United, but his time at the club was cut short due to a lack of first-team opportunities. However, his recent performances for England have caught the eye of several Premier League clubs, reigniting interest in the 24-year-old midfielder.
After impressing in his debut off the bench against the Republic of Ireland, Gomes was given a starting role against Finland and did not disappoint. He controlled the midfield with ease, showcasing his technical ability and earning praise from fans and scouts alike.
It's no surprise that Tottenham, Newcastle United, and Liverpool are all vying for Gomes' services, with Borussia Dortmund also expressing interest. The midfielder is currently in the final year of his contract with Lille and could leave for free next summer or for a modest fee in January.
While Gomes has found success in France, he has not forgotten about his time at United. As a product of their academy, he made his first-team debut at just 16 years old, becoming the youngest debutant since the legendary Duncan Edwards. However, he ultimately decided to leave in pursuit of more playing time.
Now, with his contract coming to an end, Gomes has hinted at a potential return to Old Trafford. In an interview last year, he expressed his desire to come back to the club that will always hold a special place in his heart.
Although United recently signed Manuel Ugarte, their midfield depth is still a concern. With injuries and potential departures, they could be in need of a player who can sit deep and control the game, much like United legend Paul Scholes. And with Gomes' impressive performances, a homecoming could be a smart move for the club in the future.
But for now, Gomes is focused on his current team, Lille, and helping them achieve their goals. Whether he will return to Manchester United remains to be seen, but one thing is for sure, Gomes' talent and potential have not gone unnoticed.
