Leeds United talking to Spurs keeper

Leeds United talking to Spurs keeper


Heurelho Gomes was on the crest of a wave when he joined Tottenham and in the beginning all started well. He had problems with crosses but his shot stopping was second to none.

The opportunity was there to become the Spurs keeper for years but his errors unfortunately prayed on him and eventually Harry Redknapp had to drop him. Since then there seems to have been no way back for Gomes who was hoping to be in the Brazil squad for the World Cup.

He has been trying to find a club for a few years but his wages have been a stumbling block and as with most players he has not been prepared to take a pay cut to get first team football.

He had a brief loan spell at Hoffenheim but then returned to Spurs again. News has now emerged that he is in talks with Leeds United about a loan move until the end of the season. This is probably the 33 year-old Brazilians last chance to secure the World Cup spot he wants.
