Along with his surging runs ahead and the fact that he is unusually tall for a player at its position standing at 1.88m, Gomes is an exemplary passer of the ball and likes to dictate the tempo of the game, be it playing from the centre of the park or as a left side winger who likes to drift inside.

The young star made 1293 passes last season with an impressive passing percentage of 81.5%. His best performances came at the Euros where he had a passing percentage of 82.5% and also grabbed an assist for Portugal.
