URZZZZ Hughes in talks with the owner today according to the one who broke the Gomes out story, his agent was at the training ground today
I'm going to go full conspiracy theory on this one: When it looked like we might do well this season, Bowen, as football director, advised Gomes to make changes to the team and formation, leading to his tenure being unsustainable. I don't know whether Hughes was aware of Bowen's (alleged) interference, but I'm pretty sure Bowen advised him to apply for the job.
