Soccer transfers: Angel Gomes: England midfielder joins Marseille


England midfielder Angel Gomes has joined nine-time French champions Marseille after his contract expired at fellow Ligue 1 outfit Lille.

Roberto de Zerbi’s Marseille had already reached an agreement in principle to sign the 24-year-old, who announced in May he would leave Lille at the end of his deal.

Gomes earned his first four senior caps for England under interim manager Lee Carsley last year, but has yet to feature under current boss Thomas Tuchel.

The midfielder began his career at Manchester United but left in 2020 having made just 10 appearances in all competitions, after making his debut as a 16-year-old in 2017.

He spent the past four seasons in Ligue 1, after initially being loaned to Boavista in Portugal, scoring 10 goals and providing 19 assists in 134 appearances for Lille.

Gomes will be reunited with former United team-mate Mason Greenwood at Marseille, who finished second to Paris St-Germain in Ligue 1 and will play in the Champions League next season.
