Fans of Liverpool F.C., Manchester United F.C. and Arsenal F.C. are all calling for their clubs to pursue the same player if Wolverhampton Wanderers F.C. suffer relegation.
Supporters of Liverpool F.C., Manchester United F.C. and Arsenal F.C. have all reached the same conclusion — their clubs should move for one standout player if Wolverhampton Wanderers F.C. are relegated this season.
On Tuesday night, Liverpool made the trip to Molineux for a clash that carried huge consequences at both ends of the table. The Reds knew only a win would keep their Champions League hopes firmly on track, while Wolves understood that avoiding defeat would boost their survival chances.
In the end, it was the hosts who had more to celebrate. A brilliant strike from Rodrigo Gomes put Wolves ahead, and Andre netted his first goal in 60 appearances to cancel out Mohamed Salah’s leveller and seal the victory.
However, once the final whistle blew, it wasn’t the goalscorers attracting the most attention from rival fans. Instead, many were calling on their clubs to pursue midfielder João Gomes if Wolves drop into the Championship.
Despite claiming three crucial points against the reigning champions, Wolves still face a daunting battle to avoid relegation. Should they go down, several key players are expected to attract transfer interest — and João Gomes appears high on that list.
Reacting on social media after the match, a United supporter wrote that Gomes “has to be one of the midfielders coming in this summer” and suggested he could be available at a reduced fee if relegation happens. Another fan echoed the sentiment, while a Liverpool supporter insisted the Reds should be “all over” him. An Arsenal fan added they would welcome seeing the Brazilian at the Emirates one day.
Gomes has been central to Wolves’ campaign, featuring 32 times in all competitions. After a brief dip in form that saw him dropped, he responded in style — delivering a man-of-the-match display and scoring his first goal since February 2025 in a 2–0 win over Aston Villa F.C..
