An England international, who has been heavily linked with a move to Tottenham Hotspur this summer, is also on Man United’s radar, with the Red Devils potentially set for a transfer battle against the Lilywhites for the midfielder.
Free transfers always tend to attract the most interest ahead of the transfer window, and unsurprisingly, one top-class Ligue 1 star, who is out of contract next month, appears to be on the radar of several big clubs, including Tottenham Hotspur.
Those who follow Spurs Web’s coverage would be aware that Tottenham have been installed as the favourites to land Angel Gomes on a free transfer.
It was reported by TBR Football last month that the Lille midfielder has been approached by around a dozen clubs, but Spurs are confident of winning the race for Gomes’s signature.
Man United considering entering race to sign Angel Gomes
CaughtOffside have now revealed that Man United are now contemplating putting themselves right in the thick of the race to land Angel Gomes.
The midfielder came through United’s academy, and with Rubem Amorim’s side looking to make reinforcements in the middle of the park, they are thought to be keeping a close eye on the 24-year-old’s situation.
However, the outlet confirms that Spurs are still the frontrunners to land Gomes, with Ange Postecoglou said to be pushing for the England international to be signed.
