Angel Gomes has started to attract interest from several top clubs, including Arsenal. His current contract with Lille is expiring, allowing him to speak to other clubs in January ahead of a potential free transfer in the summer. Gomes, a former Manchester United academy product, is considered a versatile attacking midfielder and a bright young talent.

Arsenal legend Lee Dixon has suggested that Arsenal might target Lille midfielder Angel Gomes, highlighting him as a quality player capable of forming a strong partnership with Declan Rice. Gomes, who has revitalized his career in Ligue 1 following a period at Manchester United, is now an integral part of the England international team. Dixon noted that Gomes's ability to play alongside Declan Rice could potentially persuade Mikel Arteta to consider signing him. With both Thomas Partey and Jorginho approaching the end of their contracts at the Emirates Stadium by the season's close, Arsenal might be prompted to bolster their midfield.
