Wolverhampton Wanderers’ main man Ruben Neves is set to represent his country once again.
Wolverhampton Wanderers star Ruben Neves has been called up to the Portuguese national team, as the European Champions prepare to take on Egypt and Holland in friendly competition at the end of this month.
The 21-year-old has been on fire for Wolves this season, and his success has been a major reason for the Midlands side finding themselves 10 points clear of third place in the Championship. His flair, composure and natural ability make him one of the best players to have competed at this level in the last few decades.
While Neves is not exactly a front-runner to make the final squad for the World Cup this summer, good performances in these upcoming clashes could improve his chances of sealing a place on the plane to Russia.
Above that, of course, Wanderers supporters will simply be hoping that he comes back from international duty without any injuries, as the club prepares for what is sure to be an extremely hectic and stressful Easter period.
It has been a long time since the Molineux faithful had a player of this quality to get behind and, contrary to popular belief, it seems as if Neves is not just treating the move as a stepping stone.
He seems to genuinely love the club and, as Wolves look ahead to a potential Premier League return, there is an extremely good chance that he will stick with them for at least another season.
With all that being said, here are some of the best reactions from Wolves fans to the call-up:
