Following their latest – and smart – move for Ryan, Bournemouth could return to Vasco da Gama for another signing.
with brazilian forward no longer leading the lineIt is Colombian attacker Andres Gomez who has stepped into a central role in Vasco’s attack.
The 21-year-old player has become one of the team’s main references in the final third, building on a strong end to last season.
Ryan’s partner for a while
During the last semester of 2025, Vasco da Gama had Ryan on the right side and Andres Gomez on the left. It was a real nightmare for the defenders, who could not prevent them from reaching Brazilian Cup later stages.
Since then, the left has carried that momentum into 2026 and established itself as a consistent attack outlet.
His performance is backed by the numbers. according to footystatsGómez is one of the Brasileirão’s most active forwards. He ranks second in successful dribbles with 21, which highlights his ability to beat defenders in straightforward situations. Additionally, he leads the league in total shots, with 24 attempts, showing both volume and offensive intent.
Those metrics help explain its growing importance. After needing time to adapt following his arrival in mid-2025, Gomez now looks fully settled. He plays with confidence, takes responsibility and is heavily involved in Vasco’s attacking phases.
So far this season, he has contributed three straight goals, along with one goal and two assists. Yet, their impact goes far beyond those numbers. He moves the ball well, attacks space and constantly tries to destabilize defensive formations.
That form has also been recognized at the international level. Gomez was included in Colombia’s latest squad under Nestor Lorenzo, and is now pushing for a place at the World Cup later this year.

Bournemouth interest emerges
As reported by A Club Insider Outlet In Brazil, Bournemouth are one of the clubs tracking the development of Andrés Gómez. The Premier League side are already familiar with Vasco’s market, having signed Ryan, and could now seek another deal.
From a recruitment perspective, Gomez fits Bournemouth’s recent profile. He is young, direct and already performing in a competitive league. His dribbling numbers and offensive involvement suggest a player who is suited to a fast, transition-based system.
However, Vasco is in no rush to sell. The Brazilian club believe that Gomez’s value could increase significantly after the World Cup. This expectation shapes their current stance in negotiations.
Our Opinion: Timing is of the essence for cherries
For Bournemouth, the timing of any move could be crucial. Acting quickly can reduce competition and keep prices low. On the other hand, waiting may provide more certainty about Gomez’s level on the international stage.
At present, interest is at the monitoring level. Meanwhile, Andrés Gómez continued to increase his role at Vasco, strengthening both his reputation in Brazil and his appeal in Europe.
