It is reported that Manchester United has an interest in William Gomes. Atlético de Madrid, Arsenal, Newcastle, and Roma are also linked to the 20-year-old Brazilian winger. FC Porto does not intend to facilitate his departure and wants to keep the player. Any interested club must either negotiate for a very high fee or pay his release clause, which is set at 80 million euros. The clubs have made inquiries to the Portuguese club about the player's situation, but no formal offers have been submitted. His former club, São Paulo, retains 20% of the player's rights. The Brazil U17 international joined Porto in January 2025 for a fee reported to be €9 million, and his contract is valid until June 2029. While reports in April and May 2026 mentioned a minimum asking price of €50 million, his current market value is €25.00m, according to Transfermarkt.
