Bruno Gomes de Oliveira Conceição (born 19 July 1996), known as Bruno Gomes or simply Bruno, is a Brazilian professional footballer who plays as a forward for Primeira Liga club Estoril, on loan from Internacional.
Club career
Internacional
Following a string of impressive performances at youth level with Desportivo Brasil, Gomes was signed by Internacional in 2013. He had previously undergone a trial at Premier League club Manchester United in 2012.[1]
Loans to Genoa and Estoril
Gomes underwent a medical at Genoa in September 2015 but his move from Internacional was denied by FIFA as the documentation required for the transfer to go through failed to arrive on time.[2] Having trained with the club in the interim, Gomes' signing was finally confirmed on 5 January 2016 on a six-month loan deal, with Genoa reserving the option to buy.[3] In May 2016, Gomes returned to Brazil pending a decision by Genoa as to whether or not to sign him permanently. He failed to make a single senior appearance for the club during his loan spell.[4]
At the end of the Serie A season Gomes returned to Internacional having failed to feature with the first team during his loan spell at Genoa.[5] Genoa subsequently opted against exercising their option to sign him permanently and on 22 July 2016 he was loaned to Portuguese Primeira Liga side Estoril for the season.[6] He made his Primeira Liga debut on 11 September, coming on as a second half substitute for Kléber in a 0-0 draw with Paços de Ferreira. On 23 September he scored the first professional goals of his career, coming off the bench to net a brace in a 4-2 loss to Sporting CP.[7]
Style of play
Due to his pace and explosiveness, Gomes has been dubbed "the new Pato" by Brazilian media given the similarities between him and Brazilian forward Alexandre Pato. He plays predominantly as a striker or secondary striker but he is also adept at playing down the left wing.[8]
