According Soccer insider information, manchester united and Liverpool are keeping an eye on Wolverhampton Wanderers midfielder Joao Gomes ahead of a possible January arrival.
The Brazilian ace joined the Midlands team from Flamengo in January last year and has already established himself as the undisputed starter. His performances have been closely watched by Man United and Liverpool.
Soccer insider information They claim that the 23-year-old is a transfer goal for the first division duo, which aims to strengthen its midfield departments. However, Wolves could be reluctant to sell him during the current transfer window.
Wolves are in a relegation fight at the bottom of the Premier League table. They are prepared to keep their main stars until the summer. In that case, United and Liverpool will continue to follow Gomes for the rest of the campaign.

Gomes was on Liverpool's radar for some time before his move to Wolves. Gomes has done brilliantly for his club and has also become a key player for the Brazilian national team. he has averaged 3.2 tackles per Premier League game this season with 5.2 duels won and as many recoveries.
His defensive attributes coupled with a tireless work rate would suit both United and Liverpool. The Red Devils already have a similar profile in Manuel Ugarte, but it would be good for them to compete for places. Coach Ruben Amorim may want more defensive security in big games and Gomes would be perfect.
Liverpool have relied too heavily on Ryan Gravenberch in the No.6 spot after missing out on Martin Zubimendi last summer. The Dutch ace has excelled under the challenge set by coach Arne Slot, but his workload needs to be managed or he could face the risk of potential injuries in the future.
Gomes would be an ideal candidate to provide quality depth in the Reds' midfield department. The midfielder is valued at £34 million per Transfer marketbut Wolves could demand up to £50m for his services in the summer, considering his impressive development over the past 18 months.
