Reports Say Man United Step Up Talks To Sign Wolves Midfielder João Gomes

A fee near £44m is being reported as Wolves weigh PSR concerns.

Overview

  • Multiple UK and Brazilian outlets report active or advanced negotiations for a January transfer, with Manchester United optimistic a deal can be struck.
  • Commonly cited valuations cluster around £44m (€50m), though some reports suggest higher figures and the exact price remains disputed.
  • Wolves sources have publicly played down club‑to‑club talks, yet David Ornstein noted the club could consider selling if relegation risk intensifies.
  • Flamengo are widely reported to hold roughly a 14% sell‑on, which could yield about €7m if a transfer is completed.
  • United view Gomes as a long‑term midfield solution and potential Casemiro successor, but at least one report disputes that talks are advanced or imminent for January.
