Manchester City reportedly scouted Wolverhampton Wanderers star Ruben Neves against Everton last weekend.
It has been reported by the British tabloid that City manager Pep Guardiola could make a move for Neves worth £60m after missing out on midfielder Jorginho to Chelsea in the summer transfer window.
The Citizens reportedly has scouts at the Molineux Stadium last weekend to watch the 21-year-old Portugal international midfielder in action against Everton in their opening Premier League game of the season.
City manager Pep Guardiola wants Neves for his holding midfield skills, according to The Sun.
Losing Ruben Neves
Neves signed a new contract with Wolves only last month, and it is hard to see Wolves sell one of their best players in the January transfer window.
After all, if the Wanderers are to be successful in the Premier League, then they will need to keep hold of their key players.
Of course, a potential bid of £60m would be hard for Wolves to turn down, but Nuno’s side should do their best to keep hold of the Portuguese until next summer at least.
