Man Utd confirm Angel Gomes exit after rejecting new contract offer and wish 19-year-old good luck for future – The Sun

MANCHESTER UNITED have confirmed Angel Gomes has left the club.

The 19-year-old starlet has snubbed a new contract at Old Trafford and is now a free agent.

A club statement said: "Manchester United can confirm that Angel Gomes has not taken up the offer of a new contract and has, therefore, left the club.

"Everybody at Manchester United would like to wish Angel the very best of luck for the future and thank him for his efforts for the club."

Gomes is one of ten United players departing the club on Wednesday after rejecting a reported £25,000 plus bonuses deal to remain at Old Trafford.

The England Under-20 international has a host of clubs chasing his signature as he now plots his next move.

Premier League rivals Chelsea are one of those interested in securing his services, although there could also be plenty of interest from abroad.

Attacking midfielder Gomes has been restricted to just six first-team appearances this season.

And that lack of opportunity for the ace, viewed as one of the brightest prospects to emerge through United’s academy in years, has convinced him to leave.

Gomes had been at Old Trafford since he was six and he became the the youngest player since Duncan Edwards to make his senior debut for the club.
