Manchester City are willing to entertain offers for young defender Sergio Gomez, according to Caught Offside. This news has alerted several clubs, including West Ham United, who are reportedly keen on acquiring the Spaniard.

A price tag exceeding PS12 million, potentially reaching PS16.9 million, has been set by Manchester City for Gomez.

Limited playing time under Pep Guardiola is said to be the driving force behind Gomez's desire to leave the Etihad Stadium.

He possesses the ability to play left-back, left wing, or even as a number 10, offering West Ham tactical flexibility.

West Ham's manager, Julen Lopetegui, is seen as a good fit for Gomez's development. His pace, skill, and creativity are seen as assets that could translate well to the Premier League, potentially earning him a starting role.

Gomez's age suggests he has significant room for improvement, particularly within Lopetegui's attacking system. He has the potential to become a crucial part of West Ham's defense for years to come.

While West Ham is interested, they face competition from other clubs, including Roma, Real Sociedad, Real Betis, and Sevilla.

He looks much in demand and as yet we have not tabled a bid for him, so I would suggest that he is not particularly high on our transfer list.
