Anthony Elanga says player who left Manchester United for free is ‘amazing’
Anthony Elanga has been speaking about his old Manchester United teammate Angel Gomes – and spoke very highly of the midfielder.
The Nottingham Forest No.21 made the comments🍃 when chatting to Rising Ba𓄧llers.
So, what did Anthony Elanga say about his fellow Manchester United academy graduate Angel Gomes? Let’s take a look…
Anthony Elanga hails Angel Gomes
Well, the England U21 international left Manchester United for Lille on a free transfer back in August 2020 after running down his contract at Old Trafford – despite interest from Arsenal too.
Gomes has since blossomed into a real mi♊dfield generalꦅ under Paulo Fonseca in France, shining across several positions as he dominates in a No.6 role – as well as higher up the pitch.
Elanga – who lefꩲt Manchester United himself back in July when sealing a move to Nottingham Forest ꦡ– has now named the Lille No.8 as his most underrated teammate.
The Sweden international : “He’s honestly so good. I feel like people watched him in the U21 Euros that Engl🌞and won, he showed his quali💙ties as a number six, eight and ten – he’s amazing.”
Gomes has delivered another impressive campaign for Lille so far this season, scoring goals while also providin꧙g seven assists in 35 appearances across all competitions.
Why Angel Gomes left Manchester United
In fairness to Manchester United, it was not like the Red Devils activel🅺y got rid♚ of Gomes.
According to , Manchester United ﷽had a new contract on the table for the 23-year-old, with Ole Gunnar Solskjaer and others at Old Trafford hoping it would be signed.
However, Sky Sports state that the “numbers did not add up” f♐or Gomes, and he decided to pursue a new challenge in his career by moving to France.
The decision has truly paid off for the Lon🌌doner, although Manchester United will be kicking themselves to have lost such a c๊lassy midfielder for nothing – one who plays the game similarly to Kobbie Mainoo.
