After leaving Feyenoord, Gomez-Nieto joined English Premier League side Stoke City in the summer of 2013 following a successful trial.[4] He played ten games for Stoke's under-21 side in the 2013–14 season and upon the conclusion of the campaign he was not offered a contract and returned to the Netherlands.[5]

He went on trial at Eerste Divisie side Helmond Sport[6] and a successful trial at Helmond earned him a contract with the club. Soon after, Gomez-Nieto made his professional debut on 29 August 2014 in a 4–1 defeat against NEC.[2]
