Angel Gomes has made his feelings clear on Premier League return as ‘Liverpool plot move for ex-Man Utd star’

Angel Gomes has already dropped a hint over his future in club football as he continues to be linked with a return to the Premier League.

Former Manchester United academy graduate Gomes, 24, left his boyhood club in 2020 in search of regular first-team football, after making just ten senior appearances for the Red Devils.

He joined French club Lille and has gone on to make 118 appearances for the team, scoring eight times.

Gomes earned his first call-up to the senior England squad for the most recent international break, winning his first cap in a 2-0 win over Ireland – becoming the first player to represent the Three Lions while playing for a French club since 1992.

He made a second appearance for the national side on Tuesday night as England ran out 2-0 winners against Finland, with Gomes drawing praise for his performance at Wembley.

The Sun have now claimed that three huge Premier League clubs are interested in signing Gomes, including one of United’s biggest rivals.

It is claimed Liverpool, Newcastle and Tottenham are all monitoring the midfielder, as are German giants Borussia Dortmund.

Gomes is out of contract next summer and could sign a pre-contract agreement with foreign clubs in January.

The player himself has already dropped a massive hint over his future, admitting he would like to return to English football at some point.

Speaking to L’Equipe in November 2022, Gomes said: “Do I imagine myself coming back one day? Obviously, it’s home.

“I would love to come back. But you never know in football. I just have to keep my feet on the ground, and keep playing, making the most of it.

“I can’t predict what will happen in the future.”

The Sun claim Newcastle could be willing to bid for Gomes in January to beat their rivals to his signature.

It comes after England interim manager Lee Carsley praised Gomes for his attitude and his football knowledge.

Carsley said: “He loves football, he watches football, he’s interested in tactics.

“He knows all the players in any league. If you ask him for any feedback, you need to be prepared that he’s going to give you some feedback on the session, or how we’re going to build up, or the positions.

“He’ll often say about some build-ups he’s done with other clubs, or what he’s played against, because he’s obviously playing in France, so he sees different things.”
