Manchester United are reportedly among several Premier League clubs interested in signing their academy product Angel Gomes from Lille.
The 24-year-old rose through the youth ranks at Man United, before going on to make 10 competitive appearances for the first team.
Gomes left the Red Devils upon the expiry of his contract in 2020 and went on to sign a five-year deal with Ligue 1 side Lille.
After spending the 2020-21 campaign on loan at Portuguese side Boavista, Gomes has managed to establish himself as a key part of the Lille first-team set-up, having made 120 appearances in all competitions.
Gomes's performances for his club side recently earned him an international call-up from interim England manager Lee Carsley.
Man United showing interest in Gomes
Earlier this month, he made his England debut as a substitute against the Republic of Ireland before putting in an encouraging display in his first international start against Finland.
Having made a positive impression at club and international level, Gomes is now attracting interest from a number of Premier League clubs.
According to GIVEMESPORT, Man United are among the clubs who are weighing up a potential move for the Lille midfielder.
The Red Devils are on the lookout for midfield reinforcement, with Casemiro and Christian Eriksen both out of contract at the end of the season.
The report states that at this stage Man United have a 'small level' of interest, but are weighing up whether to make an effort to sign Gomes next summer, especially as the player could be available on a free transfer.
Gomes is out of contract at the end of the current season and there are no imminent signs that he will sign an extension with the French club.
Who else is keen on the England international?
Should Man United decide to step up their interest, they will likely face competition from the likes of Tottenham Hotspur and Liverpool.
Newcastle United are also among Gomes's admirers and could reportedly make an effort to sign him in the January transfer window.
However, their lack of European football could prove to be an issue, with Gomes keen to join a club competing in the Champions League.
With the player attracting significant interest, he will look to secure a significant increase to his current salary and could demand around £150,000 a week.
