Premier League club hope Man United interest creates bidding war for Liverpool target

Posted by

Wolves are expecting bids for midfielder Matheus Nunes this summer with several of Europe’s biggest clubs interested in the 24-year-old talent. 

Wolves won the race for the Portuguese star last summer paying Sporting CP £42.2m for his services but some of Europe’s biggest clubs had been tracking him before he made the move to Molineux.

Therefore, despite not having as big an impact as he would have liked at Wolves this season, this previous interest in Nunes will likely resurface this summer.

Liverpool have long been linked to the 24-year-old and the Portugal star is one of several names on their transfer list heading into the upcoming window. According to Football Insider, Man United have now joined the race and Wolves hope that the Red Devils’ arrival will create a bidding war for the midfielder.

In addition to these two clubs, Relevo says that both Newcastle and Barcelona also have an eye on the 24-year-old’s situation at Wolves and would also be prepared to make a move this summer.

Wolves are said to want to land a club-record fee for the midfielder and a fee of £50m is said to be enough to lure him away from Molineux this season.
