Tottenham ‘make an offer’ to sign England midfielder ahead of summer transfer window to beat Man Utd to signature

Spurs are trying to move to the front of the queue to sign Angel Gomes, and a big update has now emerged on how Ange Postecoglou and Co are stepping up efforts to beat their Premier League rivals to the midfielder.

Gomes is expected to be the subject of a transfer battle

It is easy to see why a few Premier League clubs are looking at Gomes, who has emerged as an extremely consistent performer for Lille over recent years and has found himself getting minutes for England.

The 24-year-old has further demonstrated his versatility this season after Paulo Fonseca converted into a deep-lying playmaker.

With Angel Gomes’ contract running out in the summer, several clubs are seemingly looking to seize on the chance to offer him a route back to the Premier League, but a fresh update has now suggested that Spurs are trying to ‘position themselves at the front of the queue’ for the midfielder.

Spurs have sent an offer for Angel Gomes

TBR Football claim that in an effort to get ahead of the competition, Tottenham are now ‘stepping up their efforts’ to land Gomes on a free transfer.

It is revealed that Spurs were in talks with Gomes and his Lille teammate, Jonathan David, about a switch to North London, but Barcelona have now moved into pole position to sign the Canadian international.

Gomes is still considering his options, with a return to England now looking a possibility for the player who is allowed to sign a pre-contract agreement with non-French clubs due to his contract situation.

According to the outlet, Postecoglou‘s men have now made Gomes an offer to move to the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in the summer.
