The 21-year-old is currently a midfielder for the Brazilian club, Flamengo, and has made 41 appearances for the Rio de Janeiro based outfit in his short career.

However, the Brazilian youngster has admitted that he would like to play for Liverpool in the future, despite attracting interest from many other clubs in Europe, states SportWitness.

Speaking about his future on Instagram live, Gomes said via ESPN Brasil: “Liverpool are a team I’d play for. I have the greatest desire to play,

“Playing in the Champions League is my biggest dream and that of my family, my biggest dream in football.”
