Gomes, 24, has been turning heads ever since rolling credits on his 11-year stint at United where he started out at the age of 6 in the academy.
Arsenal legend Lee Dixon tipped his former club to sign Lille star Angel Gomes
The versatile midfielder moved to France in 2020 and has since amassed a staggering 123 appearances, despite spending a season on loan at Boavista.
That earned the defensive midfielder an England call-up by interim boss Lee Carsley and he proved he can play an integral part in the 2026 World Cup qualifiers.
Gomes has been so good he left United fans scratching their heads and wondering why he was let go.
Dixon, 60, urged his former club to capitalise on the Red Devils' inability to hold on to the England international, whom he described as a "superb" fit and the perfect partner for Declan Rice in midfield.
The former full-back predicted the North Londoners could indeed sign the United academy graduate for next season as his contract with Lille runs out in June.
Dixon told plejmo.com: "I think Angel Gomes would fit in at Arsenal superbly.
"His qualities are clear to see, he's a very good link-up player and we've seen that he can play alongside Declan Rice.
"He's got a lot of potential and although there will be plenty of clubs looking at him, I could see him at Arsenal next season."
Arsenal keep strengthening in their bid to win their first Premier League title since the Invincibles' campaign in 2004.
Dixon believes it is important to end that duck and urged his former club to also work on finally winning their first ever Champions League title.
The England international is adamant that titles need to be won and even claimed that manager Mikel Arteta would be deemed a "failure" if he failed to win any major trophies at the Emirates.
Dixon added: "If Mikel Arteta leaves Arsenal without winning the Premier League or Champions League at Arsenal you'd have to say it's been a failure because that's what he is there to do, to win the biggest trophies.
"He would be the first to say that and of course we don't know how long he will be in the job, but not winning one of those would be a massive disappointment.
"It's a tough competition to win of course, but Arsenal's defence could be the key to winning the Champions League for the first time.
"It's so tough to win, as Arsenal have proved over the years since they got to the final, they haven't come anywhere close since.
"It's tough with all the big teams and you do need a bit of luck, but you have to have a firm base and they have got that with their defence now.
"They've got that solidarity to build on and they need to get through the winter months with few injuries, that is the challenge for all the clubs in Europe."
