Sunderland are one of several Premier League clubs, alongside an ambitious Championship outfit, who have been approached by intermediaries regarding the availability of Marseille's English midfielder Angel Gomes. The French club is preparing for potential multiple bids for the 25-year-old. It is reported that he is open to returning to England. Newcastle United, Everton, Brighton, Fulham, and West Ham have also been contacted. Despite this widespread interest, Wolverhampton Wanderers are currently in the leading position and are actively trying to complete a deal. Talks between Wolves and Marseille are accelerating and progressing towards a loan with an obligation to buy if the club remains in the Premier League. Gomes, who has four caps for England, joined the French side in July 2025 and his contract runs until June 2028. In the current Ligue 1 season, he has made 14 appearances, scoring 3 goals. His market value is estimated by Transfermarkt to be €18.00m.
