Joao Gomes: Major twist reveals where Man United target will play next season
Manchester Unitedās hopes of signing Wolverhampton Wanderers midfielder Joao Gomes have been dashed by the latest update on the Samba star.
With United known to be pursuing top midfielders for their planned summer rebuild, the Wolverhampton Wanderers midfield warrior has emerged as a top target.
And it is easy to understand why Gomes is attracting interest from Old Trafford.
He offers exactly what Unitedās engine craves. A midfield destroyer, deep-lying playmaker and box-to-box midfielder all rolled into one, his tireless running, amazing work rate and tenacity, mixed with really good technique and playmaking ability, give him everything it takes to be the perfect Casemiro replacement. Despite Wolvesā Premier League struggles, he has impressed.
Joao Gomes bound for Wanda Metropolitano
Unfortunately, as Ineos dilly-dally in their pursuit of his services, a telling update has dropped.
Ben Jacobs is reporting:
āAtletico Madrid now close to a deal for Wolves midfielder Joao Gomes.
āParties, via intermediaries, are in advanced talks and are nearing a verbal agreement worth around ā¬45m.ā
Jacobsā update is certainly a big blow to Unitedās hopes of signing Gomes. The only thing that can save United now is moving fast and hijacking the deal.
