Gomes currently plays for Valencia but he shares an agent - Jorge Mendes - with Mourinho who is said to be a big fan of the player.
The midfielder joined Valencia from Benfica two years ago and has racked up 77 appearances in all competitions.
However, the club have endured a rocky season sacking two managers and finishing 12th in La Liga just six points clear of relegation.
And he has since accumulated a total of seven caps and is in the squad for Euro 2016.
Gomes will hope to win a place in the Portugal side for their first group game against Iceland on June 14 (8pm) in their final friendly against Estonia on Wednesday (7.45pm).
