Gomes: I’m likely to leave Tottenham

Brazilian goalkeeper Heurelho Gomes admits that he is likely to leave Tottenham Hotspur this summer.

Gomes is right out of the first-team picture at White Hart Lane behind Hugo Lloris and Brad Friedel. With just one year left to run on his deal, you’d expect Daniel Levy to ship him out to reduce the wage bill and to get a few quid in return.

He spent the second half of last season on loan at German outfit Hoffenheim and impressed during his short stint which was cruelly ended by a hand injury.

Gomes told Globo Esporte: “My spell in Germany was very good as I helped to save Hoffenheim from relegation to the second division.

“I had a five-month loan deal as I was not playing at Tottenham.

“Now it’s over and I have to report for duty with Tottenham but it’s likely I will leave so I can continue my career as I am doing very well.”
