I will join Man United on one condition – Angel Gomes has responded on potential Manchester United return with contract up next summer

Former Manchester United star Angel Gomes earned his first England start on Tuesday evening, four years after leaving Old Trafford

Every team has its share of “get-away” players, and Manchester United is no exception.

The team includes young products that either never lived up to expectations, matured later, or had their path to the first team obstructed before succeeding elsewhere.

Given that Manchester United has one of the largest football academies in England, it stands to reason that they have a good number of Pogbas.

Angel Gomes, a former Carrington prospect, debuted for the three Lions during the international break.

The 24-year-old started Tuesday night’s match against Finland after starting the previous Saturday against the Republic of Ireland off the bench.

Gomes put up a strong display during the 2-0 victory. Interim coach Lee Carsley selected Gomes in the starting lineup.

Gomes began training with the Red Devils as a six-year-old in 2006, working his way through the youth ranks and becoming the club’s youngest debutant since Duncan Edwards when he made his first-team bow in 2017 at the age of 16.

Gomes would end up making just ten appearances for the club before being released in 2020 after a contract extension could not be agreed. French side Lille snapped him up and after a loan move to Boavista, he quickly established himself in the heart of Lille’s first-team midfield.

Gomes’ England appearances over the past week have seen Manchester United fans on social media wondering if he has a buyback clause as they have been ruing the player’s exit
