Per Eurosport, Gomes appeared to give a ringing endorsement of the transfer, which has been suggested as being close to completion by The Athletic’s David Ornstein.
The former Red Devils midfielder said: "As soon as he arrived in the group, I understood that he was going to reach the summits.
"When I discovered the pros at the age of 16 at Manchester United, I understood that it was different. He already had the right temperament.
"That’s not normal for a 16- or 17-year-old player arriving. It’s like he’s already an experienced player and it showed in the way he trained, the way he behaved. His progress was obvious."
