Manchester United are now interested in Wolves midfielder Joao Gomes after Ederson blow | OneFootball

Manchester United are keen on a move for Wolverhampton Wanderers midfielder Joao Gomes after pulling out of a deal for Ederson, according to Brazilian outlet GE Globo.

The Red Devils agreed a deal with Atalanta for Ederson, but are not expected to complete a move for him after recent medical tests flagged up an issue.

Man United are now moving on to other targets and could look to sign Gomes alongside Chelsea’s Andrey Santos.

The Wolves star came close to joining Atletico Madrid in a €45 million deal, but the move fell through and other clubs are looking to sign him.

Liverpool are also monitoring the 25-year-old. However, Man United are long-term admirers, and he could be open to a move to the Theatre of Dreams.

Gomes’ Brazil international Matheus Cunha believes the ‘unbelievable‘ midfielder could be a solid addition to any club, claiming he reminds him of Casemiro.

The Red Devils need someone in the mould of the former Real Madrid star in the middle of the park after his performances in the second half of last term.

Gomes has proven his quality over the last three-and-a-half seasons in the Premier League despite failing to help keep Wolves up last term.

He has proven his ability in the Premier League and could prove to be a steal for around €45m.
