Tiago Barreiros de Melo Tomás (born 16 June 2002) is a Portuguese professional footballer who plays as a forward for Bundesliga club VfL Wolfsburg.

Club career

[edit]

Sporting CP

[edit]

Born in Cascais, Lisbon District of Angolan descent,[2][3] Tomás came through the youth system of Sporting CP after a year at nearby Estoril. On 25 June 2020, he signed a five-year contract at the former club, with a buyout clause of €60 million.[4]

Tomás made his professional debut on 1 July 2020 one month after his 18th birthday, as an 81st-minute substitute for Matheus Nunes in a 2–1 Primeira Liga win against Gil Vicente at home.[5] He scored his first goal on 24 September, the only one of a home victory over Aberdeen in the third qualifying round of the UEFA Europa League.[6] He contributed three goals from 30 appearances during the season, helping his team to conquer the league after 19 years.[7]

VfB Stuttgart loan

[edit]

On 30 January 2022, Tomás was loaned to VfB Stuttgart until June 2023 with a buying option.[8] He played his first match in the Bundesliga six days later, replacing Chris Führich for the final ten minutes of the 3–2 home loss to Eintracht Frankfurt.[9][10] He scored twice in his next appearance, but was unable to keep his team from a 4–2 defeat at Bayer Leverkusen.[11]

In the 2022–23 campaign, Tomás helped the Mercedes-Benz Arena club to avoid relegation via the playoffs, with the player coming from the bench in both legs of the 6–1 aggregate win over Hamburger SV.[12][13] On 16 June 2023, Stuttgart did not exercise its option and he left, thanking the organisation for "believing in me when no one else did".[14]

VfL Wolfsburg

[edit]

On 5 July 2023, Tomás signed a four-year contract with VfL Wolfsburg also of the German top division,[15] for a fee of €8.8 million which could rise to €10.3 million with add-ons; Sporting were also entitled to 15% of any future transfer.[16] He scored two of his three goals of his first season on 13 August, in the 6–0 away rout of amateurs Makkabi Berlin in the opening round of the DFB-Pokal.[17]

International career

[edit]

Aged 18, Tomás was selected by Portugal under-21 manager Rui Jorge for his 2021 UEFA European Championship squad.[18] He earned his first cap in the first group stage match, starting a 1–0 win against Croatia in Koper.[19]

Tomás scored his first goal on 7 October 2021, his team's tenth in the 11–0 demolition of Liechstenstein in Vizela for the 2023 European Championship qualifiers.[20]
