"Atletico Madrid have identified Joao Gomes as a priority midfield target following the sale of Conor Gallagher to Tottenham Hotspur, according to MARCA. Diego Simeone's side are actively searching for a dynamic, ball-winning midfielder to replace Gallagher's intensity and work rate, qualities they believe the Wolves star possesses in abundance. But Atletico are not alone in the pursuit. Manchester United and Napoli are also monitoring Gomes closely, setting the stage for a multi-club battle over one of the Premier League's most industrious midfielders."
"With Casemiro entering the final months of his Man United contract, the club have been assessing potential long-term replacements for months. United's midfield has been one of their biggest weaknesses this season, with Manuel Ugarte struggling for form and Kobbie Mainoo still developing. Gomes represents the type of profile United want, young, athletic, aggressive, and Premier League-proven. The club have been tracking him intensively since the summer, and their scouting reports have been overwhelmingly positive."

Diego Simeone wants a dynamic, ball-winning midfielder to replicate Gallagher's intensity, work rate and defensive grit. Manchester United and Napoli are also monitoring Gomes, with United viewing him as a potential long-term successor to Casemiro. Casemiro is entering the final months of his contract, and United have been assessing replacements amid midfield struggles from Manuel Ugarte and a developing Kobbie Mainoo. Gomes is young, athletic, aggressive and Premier League-proven; scouts have rated him highly. Wolves currently face no selling pressure, though significant offers could change that.
