Wolves legend Steve Bull raved about the quality of Ruben Neves, when writing his regular column for the Express & Star, labelling the Portuguese ace as one of the best players he has ever seen at Molineux.

Neves joined the Black Country outfit from Porto in the summer of 2017, for a fee believed to be worth in the region of £15.8 million, and he has since gone on to really impress for Nuno Espirito Santo’s side.

At just 21-years-old, the midfielder plays with a certain kind of maturity and composure that defies his tender years, and he has already proven to be one of the signings of the season, if not the best.

Bull, who enjoyed a wonderfully successful career with Wolves with 306 goals to his name, offered high words of praise for the Portugal international, when writing his regular column for the Express & Star, labelling him as ‘superb’:

“Ruben Neves is without doubt one of the best players I’ve ever seen at Wolves. That’s how highly I rate him and I reckon if Billy Wright was still alive, he’d say exactly the same. Neves’s passing, his movement and his control of the game is just absolutely superb.”

Wolves currently sit comfortably at the top of the Championship table, with a huge 13 point lead over third placed Fulham, and Neves will surely have a huge role to play for his side in their run-in, as they look to win promotion back to the top flight.
