Gomes, who currently plies his trade with Ligue 1 side Lille, was recently called up to the England national team by new manager Lee Carsley for their Nations League clashes in the September international break. The midfielder earned his maiden international cap against Ireland last week where he came on as a late substitute and then played the entire 90 minutes against Finland on Tuesday.


The 24-year-old has entered the final year of his contract with the French club and he reportedly does not plan to extend his stay beyond the current campaign. Per The Sun, his contract situation has alerted several Premier League clubs including English giants Liverpool, Newcastle United and Tottenham Hotspur. The report also adds that the Magpies have made Gomes their 'top target' and are planning to approach the player as early as the January transfer window, while Spurs have been long-time admirers of the youngster.


Last month, the England international was involved in a violent clash with Amadou Kone during a Ligue 1 clash between Lille and Reims. The collision resulted in a severe head injury prompting immediate action from the match officials and medical staff. The player, however, returned to action for his club on September 1 before travelling with the Three Lions squad for their Nations League clashes.


The player will be back in action with the French club this week as Lille take on St-Etienne in a Ligue 1 clash on Friday night.
