Manchester United are reportedly mulling a move for Wolves star Joao Gomes.

The 23-year-old has been identified as Casemiro’s replacement.

Manchester United wants Joao Gomes.

The Wolves star might replace Casemiro this summer.

United are expected to move the seasoned Brazilian this summer, as new manager Sir Jim Ratcliffe wants to construct a younger squad.

Casemiro, 32, has already missed 16 matches this season owing to injury, and he will not play for his country against England this weekend due to additional fitness difficulties.

Ironically, Gomes might play for Brazil instead of Casemiro at Wembley Stadium, earning his first international cap.

According to The Mirror, he may possibly be slated to replace Casemiro at Manchester United.

Gomes is the type of player Ratcliffe would be interested in, having previously advised fans not to anticipate major acquisitions.João Gomes on X: “Good morning ” (X)

Wolves paid £12 million for him a year ago from Flamengo and are reportedly prepared to want over £40 million for the midfielder.

Gomes has also piqued the interest of Tottenham and Newcastle.

Wolves are apparently preparing for bids and have already identified potential successors.

The team may be compelled to sell a key player at the end of the season due to pressure to achieve Profit and Sustainability Regulations.
