A<\/span>s per a report published by <\/span>Sportsmole<\/span><\/a>, Barcelona have entered the race to sign Lille<\/a> midfielder Angel Gomes in the summer. Notably, the player will become a free agent by the end of the season as he isn\u2019t keen on a contract renewal.<\/span><\/p>\n

Angel Gomes is about to leave Lille<\/span><\/strong><\/h2>\n

Angel Gomes<\/a> came through Manchester United academy but his fortunes changed when he joined Lille in the summer of 2020. He has <\/span>managed to establish<\/span> himself at the French club and also <\/span>earn<\/span> a recall to his national football team.<\/span><\/p>\n

Gomes is having a decent season where he has netted two goals and provided an assist in 20 games. He <\/span>is averaging<\/span> 0.5 shots, 0.9 key passes, and 0.3 dribbles per game (stats via <\/span>whoscored<\/span><\/a>).<\/span><\/p>\n

The English midfielder is versatile <\/span>to don<\/span> different roles in the middle of the park. He is comfortable on the ball and remains composed under pressure. <\/span>He has<\/span> great dribbling and passing abilities<\/span>, making<\/span> him a valuable player while going higher on the pitch.<\/span><\/p>\n

Angel Gomes is wanted by many clubs<\/span><\/strong><\/h2>\n

Barcelona have somewhere relied on free agents in recent seasons due to their financial crisis. Though the situation has improved, running behind more free agents won\u2019t be a bad idea at all. He<\/span>nce, the<\/span>ir interest in Angel Gomes makes sense.<\/span><\/p>\n

Gomes is a talented midfielder who can contribute in both aspects of the game. <\/span>He can be used as <\/span>doube<\/span> pivot or feature in an attacking midfielder role. <\/span>As he is<\/span> just 24, he can dedicate his peak years and serve the club for many years to come.<\/span><\/p>\n

However, signing him won\u2019t be easy <\/span>at all<\/span> considering multiple English clubs are running to get his signature. West Ham United<\/a> recently offered him a \u00a3100,000 week wage but the player rejected the <\/span>interest<\/span>. It will be interesting to see if he actually shows interest in the Spanish outfit <\/span>or not<\/span>.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n
