Sevilla has shown a strong interest in acquiring Claudio Gomes, a French midfielder who is currently part of Palermo's squad. At the age of 25, Gomes is expected to join Sevilla with the objective of enhancing the team's midfield with his strength, aggressiveness, leadership qualities, and speed. In the previous season, he participated in 35 games, predominantly as a starter, and made significant contributions by scoring two goals and providing one assist, which played a crucial role in Palermo's journey to the play-offs for Serie A promotion. Although he is contracted until 2027, his market value stands at 2.8 million euros. Gomes developed his skills at PSG's academy and has experience playing for the second teams of Manchester City and PSV Eindhoven, in addition to Barnsley. Sevilla's director of football, Antonio Cordón, is concentrating on reshaping the team, taking advantage of the newfound financial flexibility resulting from recent player sales and salary reductions. Gomes is regarded as a natural leader and a dynamic presence in the midfield, often drawing comparisons to N’Golo Kanté due to his defensive capabilities and his knack for creating attacking opportunities.
