Wolves to Seal Angel Gomes Loan Move Ahead of Deadline Day
Wolverhampton Wanderers are on the verge of completing a loan deal for Marseille midfielder Angel Gomes, according to reports. The 25-year-old England international has been at Ligue 1 club since the summer but has failed to make a significant impact, starting just one match in all competitions.
The move is expected to be finalized ahead of the January transfer window deadline day, with sources indicating that Wolves will have an option to buy Gomes for an initial loan period. The former Manchester United player made his senior debut for the Red Devils at 16 years and 263 days old, becoming the youngest player to represent the club since Duncan Edwards in 1953.
Gomes has four England caps but has not played internationally since October 2024. He has struggled to find consistency at Marseille, scoring just four goals in 20 appearances across all competitions.

The fact that they're willing to take on the risk of a player with so little game time is just crazy talk. And an option to buy him? Are they outta their minds?! Wolves should be focusing on developing their own talent, not throwing good money after bad on some has-been like Gomes...
... is it the pressure of expectation, or is he just lost in a sea of uncertainty about his role on the pitch? I mean, think about it, he was touted as one of the next big things at Manchester United, and then... nothing. Just like that. It's as if he's been put under a microscope, and suddenly everyone's eyes are on him, waiting for him to make a mistake. Can you blame him for feeling suffocated? And now, he's off to Wolves, hoping to find his footing again 
... will they be the place where he finds himself, or just another stop on the journey of self-discovery?
Wolves are paws-itive they'll get a good deal on Angel Gomes 
this loan deal is a risk for Wolves, they need someone who can consistently bring something to the table, Gomes hasn't shown enough for me 
wolves r making a move for angel gomes he was so promising as a teenager but honestly didnt do much at man united and now hes stuck in marseille 
! People are gonna say he's had a rough time at Marseille, but I think that's 'cause they didn't know what to do with him yet 
. The guy's still only 25 and has loads of experience playing for England, so I reckon he'll smash it here in the Championship 
. I mean, Wolves are all about developing young talent and giving them a chance, right? 
And who knows, maybe Gomes will be just the spark we need to turn things around at Molineux 
! Don't count him out just 'cause he's not scored loads of goals yet, he'll find his form, trust me 
he just cant seem to catch a break at marseille. but hey, maybe wolverhampton wanderers will be able to help him find some consistency again? the fact that they'll have an option to buy him after the loan period is a big plus too - like, if gomes really needs a fresh start, this could be just what he needs!
wolves might b the perfect fit 4 him, they need players who can make an impact n he might just b that for them 
ppl r always talkin bout how old u r but in reality, age is just a number, its wut u do w/ it that matters 
they already got some decent players in their squad but i guess loaning in angel gomes is a risk worth taking lol he's been pretty meh at marseille and now hes heading to wolves 
. But now? Not so much. Maybe Wolves can help him regain some form, or maybe it's just a case of Gomes not being good enough for top-level European football
