Manchester United targets Wolves midfielder Joao Gomes as a key option to replace Casemiro, who plans to leave at the end of the season. Casemiro announced his departure back in January 2026, prompting United to intensify their search for midfield reinforcements. With Wolves struggling at the bottom of the Premier League, Gomes may not be part of their squad if relegation occurs. Reports indicate that United's interest in Gomes remains strong, regardless of Michael Carrick's future as interim manager. Carrick, contracted until summer 2026, has been tracking Gomes since his appointment. However, Newcastle United also eyes Gomes, placing him high on their summer wishlist, despite their current mid-table position. United sits third in the league with 51 points, while Newcastle lags in 12th with 39 points, giving United a potential edge in securing the Brazilian midfielder. Gomes has made 123 appearances for Wolves since joining from Flamengo in January 2023.
