Manchester United close in on transfer as Wolves star ‘already negotiating’ move

Must read

Manchester United are “already negotiating” a transfer for Wolves midfielder Ruben Neves, according to reports in Spain.

The Portuguese has been heavily linked with a move away from Molineux in the last 12 months and while his contract is set to run into its final year this summer, he is widely tipped to depart. Wolves could reluctantly listen to offers for Neves this summer given that he could leave for nothing in the summer of 2024.

SPORT claim that United have received a boost of landing the Portugal international with Barcelona withdrawing from the race. The report adds that Neves is “already negotiating what could be his transfer to United starting next summer”.

Erik ten Hag wants to bolster his midfield despite Casemiro, Christian Eriksen and Marcel Sabitzer all joining the club over the past 12 months. A move for Neves appears to have traction given that there is an acceptance at Wolves that their star man could be playing his final games for the club this term, as Julen Lopetegui’s side scrap for survival at the foot of the Premier League table.

Neves has spent six years with Wolves after joining his former Porto manager Nuno Espirito Santo to the club. He has made a total of 245 appearances for Wolves since joining back in 2017 from FC Porto, but as he enters the final year of his contract, clubs are looking at the possibility of snapping him up when the Premier League season ends.
