Club career

[edit]

Braga

[edit]

Born in Póvoa de Varzim and a product of Braga's youth system, Gomes made his debut in the Primeira Liga on 3 October 2020 in a 4–0 win at Tondela, as a substitute playing the final two minutes in place of Fransérgio.[1] On 14 December, he made his first start in a 7–0 Taça de Portugal fourth round win at third-tier Olímpico do Montijo, being taken off for Iuri Medeiros after 69 minutes.[2]

On 19 July 2021, Gomes signed a new contract until 2026, increasing his buyout clause from €15 million to €35 million.[3] After a season in the reserves in Liga 3, he scored his first top-flight goal on 21 August 2022, coming on as a late replacement to conclude a 5–0 win over Marítimo at the Estádio Municipal de Braga.[4]

Loan to Estoril

[edit]

On 4 August 2023, Braga announced that Gomes would be sent on a season-long loan to Primeira Liga side Estoril Praia, with no future option to make the deal permanent.[5] Four days later, Estoril officially announced the loan signing.[6] At Estoril, Gomes began playing as a wing-back, mainly on the right side of the pitch.[7]

Wolverhampton Wanderers

[edit]

On 12 June 2024, Braga's president, António Salvador, publicly confirmed that the club had reached an agreement for the permanent transfer of Gomes to Premier League side Wolverhampton Wanderers.[8] He later signed a contract until 2029 in a deal worth £12.7m.[9]
