Gomes started his career at Manchester United at the age of five and made his first-team debut, aged 16, in May 2017, becoming the youngest player to represent the club since Duncan Edwards in 1953.

Meanwhile, Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp said that the club winning the title after Chelsea beat second-placed Manchester City was one of the best football moments he has ever had while not being in the stadium.

Chelsea beat City 2-1 on June 26 which confirmed that the Premier League title would go to Liverpool. It was the Merseyside giants' first ever title in the league and their first in the English top flight in three decades.

"Counting the minutes, it was just incredible and absolutely one of the best football moments I've ever had in my life with not being in a stadium," Klopp explains in LFCTV's aGolden Sky: Klopp's Champions' documentary.

"Because we were there together you could see each face. Players were sitting there, some couldn't really watch it and stuff like this. We were all like this and it was absolutely exceptional."
