Reports suggest that Gomes is among the players United's management believes could strengthen the midfield after Casemiro's departure.

However, for now, United is not planning to open negotiations, as they are waiting to see if Wolverhampton is relegated from the Premier League at the end of the season, which would significantly simplify talks and drive down the player's price.

This season, Gomes has played 35 matches for the Wolves, scoring 1 goal and providing 3 assists. His current contract with Wolverhampton runs until 2030, and his market value is estimated by Transfermarkt at €35 million.
