Gomes has fallen behind Brad Friedel and Carlo Cudicini in the pecking order at White Hart Lane in recent weeks.
The Brazilian has recently been linked with a return to his former club PSV Eindhoven.
Redknapp said: “I think he does have a future with Tottenham.
“He’s obviously upset he’s been left out. It’s been difficult. I brought Brad in, there’s competition for places and I just decided to go with Brad. It was my gut feeling.”
