Manchester United increases interest in Wolves midfielder Joao Gomes

Summary

Manchester United is intensifying its pursuit of Wolves midfielder Joao Gomes as the club is willing to accept lower offers due to relegation. Previously valued at £40 million, Gomes is now available for about £30 million. United's interest follows their pivot from a potential deal for Ederson, focusing instead on securing Gomes alongside Youri Tielemans. Reports indicate that United aims to strengthen their midfield following the departures of Casemiro and the injured Manuel Ugarte. Negotiations are expected to advance as both United and Liverpool express interest in the 25-year-old Brazilian.
