Wolverhampton Wanderers supporters claim that Angel Gomes should remain at Molineux next season.
The England international moved to the Old Gold club in the winter window on loan from Marseille.
Wolves possess an option to buy the 25-year-old attacking midfielder in the summer, in what looked to be a brilliant move for the club a few weeks back.
However, Gomes’ move to Wolves shocked many Premier League fans, and now supporters want his stay to become a permanent one.

Wolves fans want Angel Gomes permanent deal
Gomes’ move to Wolves in the winter window certainly raised eyebrows.

The winger was highly sought after in recent years in the Premier League before he moved to Marseille in the summer.
However, this transfer clearly did not work out, which resulted in the transfer to Wolves on deadline day.
So far, Gomes has not set the world alight at Molineux and is yet to pick up a single goal contribution in his six appearances.
His lack of output saw him dropped from the starting XI until he was brought back into the lineup for the 2-1 victory over Liverpool on Tuesday.
Reflecting on his performance, Wolves fans believe that his stay should become permanent, despite claims that he is “lightweight”.
Struggling but he’ll get there. Gonna be essential next season me thinks if we keep him

Clear quality on the ball I just think he needs to adjust physically and get more minutes too, still think he’d be arguably the best midfielder in the Champ if we could convince him to stay

Good player, need to convince him his future’s here & to stay next season

Good footballer but a little lightweight. Hopefully we can keep him here for next season. Would be really effective in the champ I feel

Great footballer just a little lightweight I think but can’t expect him him to be mad when he’s only little

Bit early to say but has good vision for a great pass but could be too lightweight for the EPL, or indeed the Championship, if he stays!

Very tidy. Will be best player in Championship if he stays.

How good has Gomes been for Wolves?
According to Fotmob on 4 March, Gomes’ stats in the Premier League this season have been solid.
He is averaging 0.75 successful dribbles, 70 per cent duel won, 50 per cent successful crosses, 2.61 tackles per 90 minutes.
Gomes is also yet to be dispossessed, with his possession of the ball being an obvious highlight.
However, his attacking stats leave much to be desired, with the midfielder only producing a 0.02 xG, 0.75 shots and 1.12 chances on average each game.

As a result, this is going to have to dramatically improve if Gomes is to have any impact in the Championship next season.
The 25-year-old will be hoping to get his career back on track, and a spell in the second-tier could be the solution to this problem.
However, it remains to be seen if he is capable of pulling this off and if Wolves want to make his stay a permanent one in the summer.
