Club career

Torino

He is a product of Torino youth teams, just as his older brothers Lys Gomis and Alfred Gomis are, they are also both goalkeepers. [1] He was included on their Under-19 squad for the first time at the age of 16 in the 2014–15 season. [2] He did not make any appearances for that squad that season, serving as back-up for Andrea Zaccagno and Nicholas Lentini. In the next 2015–16 season he was sent on loans to Serie D teams, first Delta Rovigo [1] and then Mestre. [3]

On 19 July 2016, he joined his hometown team Cuneo on a permanent basis, also in the Serie D. [4] He became the first-choice goalkeeper for the club in the subsequent 2016–17 season. [5]

On 29 August 2017, he moved to yet another Serie D club, this time Nocerina. [6] At Nocerina, Gomis also was the first-choice goalkeeper. [5]

Loan to Siracusa

On 26 July 2018, he joined Serie C club Siracusa on a season-long loan. [8] On 9 September 2018, he suffered minor injuries in a car accident which also killed the driver of the car, 27-year-old Siracusa club employee Davide Artale. [9]

Upon his recovery, he made his Serie C debut for Siracusa on 15 October 2018 in a game against Reggina. [10]

Loan to Kukësi

On 31 January 2019, he moved to Albania on a new loan to Kukësi. [11]
