Key strength: Pace and dribbling
Wide creator
At the bottom of the Premier League table, Wolverhampton Wanderers are fighting for survival with 20th place in their sights. Amid the chaos, young Portuguese talent Rodrigo Gomes is carving out his place in English football. The 22-year-old arrived from SC Braga's youth system on 1 July 2024, bringing a €15m market valuation and the creative instincts of a natural inverted winger. With 540 minutes across 8 appearances, Gomes has already opened his goalscoring account—an encouraging sign for a player adapting to the physical demands of the Premier League. His 70-rated dribbling ability provides Wolves with much-needed attacking impetus down the left flank, where he looks to cut inside and create opportunities. Partnering with fellow Portuguese wingers and overlapping with left-backs like Hugo Bueno, Gomes represents the youthful rebuild Gary O'Neil is banking on to drag Wolves out of the relegation zone. The pressure is immense, but in Gomes, Wolves have a technically gifted youngster with the composure to match his flair.
