Joao Gomes, Atletico Madrid, Manchester United, Wolves
23 May 2026
Atletico Madrid reportedly prefer Wolves midfielder Joao Gomes after Ederson moved closer to Manchester United, while United also remain interested in Gomes. The situation creates a second midfield race around both clubs’ summer plans.
Atletico’s focus could shift fully to Gomes if Ederson heads to Old Trafford, but United’s continued interest may complicate the market. Wolves would likely demand a strong fee because the midfielder remains central to their squad.
