Juventus join race to sign Gomes

Juventus are set to join West Ham in the race to sign Barcelona midfielder Andre Gomes, according to Calciomercato.

New Barcelona boss Ernesto Valverde has already informed Gomes that he is not part of his plans for the upcoming season and is free to leave the Nou Camp this summer.

Gomes had been heavily linked with a move to the Premier League this summer, with West Ham, Chelsea and Manchester United all said to be interested.

However, it now appears that Gomes could complete a move to Italy, with the Serie A champions Juventus ready to sign the 24-year-old.

Barcelona are reportedly more than happy to sell Gomes this summer and recoup some of the money they spent on signing the Portuguese international from Valencia last season.

According to Tuttosport, Gomes’s agent Jorge Mendes is already hard at work trying to push through a deal for his player to join Juventus.
