European giants in for Wolves star
Midfielder is expected to leave Molineux this summer
European giants Atletico Madrid are targeting a move for Wolves midfielder Joao Gomes this summer.
With Wolves heading for the Championship, Gomes is expected to leave Molineux this summer - and is believed to have a number of suitors.
But it is La Liga outfit Atletico who are showing the most interest so far, opening talks with intermediaries over a move for the 25-year-old.
The Champions League semi-finalists - who face Arsenal in the competition next week - were interested in January without being able to pull off a deal.
However, they have now begun to make their move for him at the start of what is expected to be a busy summer for Wolves - with many players expected in and out at Molineux.
Gomes has made 126 appearances for Wolves since signing from Flamengo in January 2023 following a protracted move for the Brazilian that included Wolves fans going viral with their “#FreeJoaoGomes” campaign.
