Graeme Bailey – Chief Correspondent at TBR Football – has now been informed that Caen are looking to sell the France U19 international this winter after learning he will not sign a new contract.

Gomis sees his current terms expire in June 2025.

We understand Caen are keen to sell the 18-year-old for a fee this month before he enters free agency this summer and departs for nothing, with Newcastle, Everton, Brentford and Brighton also monitoring the situation.

Sources state that a sum of just £1.7m would be enough to sign Gomis now, although Aston Villa and others can also agree a pre-contract ahead of signing the attacker for free in the summer.

Sources have told TBR Football that Manchester City admire the teenager – described as a “jewel” by Sky Sports – and could sign the winger before loaning him to another side in the City Football Group.

RB Leipzig, Borussia Dortmund, Marseille and Lille are also interested in Gomis – who has scored two goals and provided two assists in 17 Ligue 2 appearances so far this season

Aston Villa already have a couple of French speakers who could help the youngster settle in at Villa Park – if an agreement materialises – in the form of France internationals Lucas Digne and Boubacar Kamara.
