Ligue 1 champions PSG are looking for a new midfielder and reportedly want Neves from Premier League newcomers Wolverhampton Wanderers.
Wolverhampton Wanderers raised plenty of eyebrows when they made Ruben Neves the most expensive player in Championship history, signing the highly-rated midfielder from FC Porto last year for £15.8 million.
Just over 12 months later, however, and the Portuguese international is worth far more. And it appears that he is on the radar of some of Europe’s biggest and most affluent clubs, too.
The Sun reports that Neves would now cost around £60 million amid interest from Premier League giants Manchester City and Manchester United, who could both see him as a potential long-term successor to Fernandinho or Michael Carrick at the base of their respective midfields.
Serie A champions Juventus are also keen, according to Calciomercato. And the Italian publication has now thrown another name into the frame – Paris Saint-Germain.
It is claimed that PSG are now tracking the 21-year-old after his virtuoso displays helped Wolves cruise to the Championship title and seal a return to the Premier League after six years away.
Neves could perhaps be viewed as a successor to Adrien Rabiot; the French international who is out of contract next year.
Fortunately for Wolves, however, Neves only signed a new contract until 2023 a few months ago.
