Biography
Angel Gomes
England international Angel Gomes joined Wolves on loan for the remainder of the 2025/26 season.
The 25-year-old, whose deal includes an option to buy, made his return to the Premier League on the back of a short spell with Ligue 1 side Marseille, who he’d represented 20 times, scoring on four occasions.
Born in London, but it was Manchester United where Gomes began his career, progressing through the ranks to play ten senior games, five of them in the Premier League.
Capable of playing in a number of midfield roles, Gomes’ break came on loan with Boavista in the Primeira Liga, where his 12 goal involvements saw him given his opportunity at parent side Lille the following year.
It was with the French side where Gomes made his Champions League debut, scoring his first goal in Europe’s top competition against Wolfsburg – one of four European campaigns during his time in France – as he established himself at Lille.
He finished the 2023/24 campaign as Ligue 1’s joint top assist provider, and Gomes spent one more season at Lille, before moving to Marseille in the summer where he once again featured in the Champions League.
Gomes played his final game for Marseille against Angers in January and returned to the UK as Rob Edwards’ second signing of deadline day in February 2026.
