Man United Add João Gomes to Midfield Shortlist as Wolves Deny Talks

United view the Wolves midfielder as a potential January opportunity rather than a priority.

Overview

  • Manchester United scouts have tracked João Gomes alongside teammate André and other options as the club widens its search for midfield reinforcements.
  • David Ornstein reports there are no talks between United and Wolves, and head coach Rob Edwards says he is not aware of any approach for Gomes.
  • Fabrizio Romano says Gomes is under consideration as a market opportunity for January, with higher‑ceiling summer targets such as Adam Wharton and Elliot Anderson still preferred.
  • Wolves are insisting on keeping Gomes, who is under contract until 2030, though reports suggest his availability could shift if relegation pressures grow and Liverpool’s interest has reportedly cooled.
  • United intend to add at least one midfielder over the next two windows, and while some outlets claim Gomes would welcome the move, there has been no formal contact reported.
