Former Man Utd star set to make a Premier League return? United, Spurs, and more in the race

Angel Gomes, the former Manchester United wonderkid, is grabbing headlines again. After shining on the international stage with England, several Premier League clubs, including Manchester United, and Tottenham Hotspur are reportedly lining up to bring him back to English football. Could we be seeing a homecoming for the talented midfielder?

Gomes, now 23, left Old Trafford in 2020 to join French side Lille, where he?s since impressed with his performances. Angel Gomes' Ligue 1 statistics for the 2023/24 season with Lille OSC:

Stat Output Appearances 31 Assists 8 Key Passes Per Game 1.5 Shots Per Game 1.1 Through Balls Per Game 0.2

But after his recent call-up to the England squad and a standout display alongside stars like Jack Grealish and Jude Bellingham, the Premier League clubs are once again knocking at his door.

Who are the clubs in race to sign Angel Gomes?

Gomes hasn?t played in the Premier League for four years, but his form with Lille and his strong showing for England has turned heads.

He even set up a goal for Grealish in England?s last match, further proving he can hold his own at the top level. According to GIVEMESPORT, Scouts from Man United, Tottenham, Villa, and Newcastle have all been keeping a close eye on him, with each club looking for an edge in what?s set to be a fierce competition for his signature.

Though he?s also attracting interest from Bundesliga and Serie A clubs, a return to the Premier League seems likely. And with the January transfer window fast approaching, the race for his services could get heated.

For United fans, it?s a ?what could have been? moment. Gomes, a product of their youth academy, left in search of regular first-team football, something he wasn?t getting at Old Trafford.

But now, they might be looking to give another chance to their-made player. While Spurs could strengthen their options in the attacking midfield alongside James Maddison. With Unai Emery's Villans and Eddie Howe's Magpies also in the mix, it will be a tough call to make for Gomes if he whishes to make a return to the English football.
