Gomes has lost his place in the first team to summer signing Brad Friedel, and is seemingly now third choice between the sticks as Carlo Cudicini was in net during last night’s 0-0 draw with PAOK Salonika, in a side made up of youth players and reserves.
However, Redknapp is quoted by Goal.com as saying: “I think he does have a future with Tottenham. He’s obviously upset he’s been left out. I brought Brad in, there’s competition for places and I just decided to go with Brad. It was my gut feeling.”
30-year-old Gomes has been with Spurs since 2008. After a difficult start at White Hart Lane, he grew in stature in the first team, but last season a series of high-profile errors prompted Redknapp to replace him, and he has recently been linked with Corinthians.
