Angel Gomes ‘makes decision’ on which Premier League club to join with three interested in transfer

Angel Gomes has made a decision on which Premier League club he wants to join, according to a fresh report.

The England international was once the crown jewel in Manchester United’s academy, having made his first-team debut under Jose Mourinho aged 16.

Three years later, however, he rejected a new deal at United and left the club in search of more first team opportunities.

Gomes has since ignited his career at Lille, where his performances have earned him first-team England recognition.

And with his contract in France now entering its final six months, GiveMeSport have alleged that West Ham, Manchester United and Tottenham are all battling for the 24-year-old’s services.

Moreover, the publication has claimed Gomes prefers to embark on a fresh challenge at Spurs, rather than sign for West Ham or rejoin United.

Spurs are said to be ahead of West Ham, despite Graham Potters side having already pushed a pre-contract offer in Gomes’ direction. Meanwhile, United have reportedly stopped short of putting in a bid.

Aston Villa and Newcastle United are also thought to be long-term admirers.

While Spurs will be happy to have seemingly stolen a march over their rivals in the pursuit of Gomes, manager Ange Postecoglou insisted he wants signings this window.

"I'm not out there trying to find opportunities for the club, that's not my role at this time. There isn't time to do it," Postecoglou told reporters earlier this week,

"I don't think I'm stating anything other than the obvious and for me to come here and say something else would be disingenuous. This playing group needs help, there's no doubt about that.

"We're sort of playing with fire by not bringing anyone in, but the flip side of that is the club is trying to change that situation."

Spurs are 15th in the table, closer to the relegation zone than the European places after just one win and seven losses in their last 10 games. They also have the longest injury list in the league, with 12 players sidelined.
