In the last two seasons, in the Bundesliga, another talented midfielder has been born. He is João Gomez, the midfield talent who currently plays for Flamengo.
João Gomez, born in February 2001 and only 21 years old, is one of the new generation of Brazilian football's midfielder all-rounders. Although he is not physically outstanding, neither tall nor strong, he has outstanding footwork, talent, and a sense of ball and awareness that others cannot match, which makes him particularly comfortable in driving the game.
The data shows that although Joao Gomes is physically average, he has more than ordinary achievements in five technical indicators, such as speed, strength, defense, dribbling, and passing. In addition, João Gomes is a versatile midfielder, playing almost any position in midfield, from the back to the front and even the shadow forward.
What's even more rare is that João Gomez, in addition to his outstanding ability to intercept tackles, also has super attacking attributes. According to statistics, so far this season, Gomes has played 47 games in all competitions for Flamengo, starting 35 games, in addition to being solid defensively, he has also contributed 2 goals and 2 assists on the offensive end, and is an important player in helping Flamengo reach the final of the Copa do Brasil and the final of the Copa Libertadores.
With Joao Gomez's rise to the fore in the Bundesliga, the 21-year-old Brazilian midfielder has become a staple in the European transfer market. According to the latest report of Brazilian media "Global Sports", up to now, six European powerhouses, including Real Madrid, Manchester United, Liverpool, Dortmund, Atletico Madrid, Bayer Leverkusen and so on, are chasing João Gomez.
It is reported that Gomez has currently renewed his contract with Flamengo until 2027. Although Flamengo are open to Gomez's transfer, they do not intend to sell him in the winter window, only accept transfer negotiations in the summer window next year. It seems that the above 6 European giants will have to wait patiently for a while if they want to get Gomez. Not surprisingly, in the summer window next year, these 6 European powerhouses may launch a robbery war around the Brazilian all-round demon child. As for who can finally get him, it will have to wait and see. Initially, it is expected that his transfer will be worth at least 30 million euros.
