Wolverhampton Wanderers should make a move for the West Ham United-linked Brazilian.
Wolves fans are full of excitement and expectation ahead of the new Premier League campaign, and Nuno Espirito Santo will surely be looking to add further quality to his ranks at Molineux before they kick of their campaign at home to Everton on August 11th.
One particular department where the Portuguese will want to strengthen is his wide attacking areas, especially with rumours circulating regarding Ivan Cavaleiro’s potential exit from the club.
The Mirror linked the Portuguese ace with a move to Huddersfield Town last week, and if he does end up leaving Molinuex, Nuno will obviously have to bring in an able-bodied replacement.
With this in mind, Wolves should consider hijacking West Ham’s reported move for Brazilian ace Bernard, who is available on a free transfer this summer.

According to a report from Italian journalist Alfredo Pedulla, the Hammers are currently in talks to sign the Shakhtar winger.
The 25-year-old joined Shakhtar Donetsk in the summer of 2013, for a fee believed to be worth in the region of £21.5 million, and he has gone on to chalk up 28 goals and 35 assists in 157 appearances in all competitions for the Ukrainian outfit.
Bernard would be an exceptional addition to Nuno’s squad.
He possesses trickery and skill in abundance, and his creative nouse would surely help the Black Country outfit improve upon the potency of their play in the final third.
His availability on a free transfer makes a move for him a no-brainer, and Wolves quite simply must make an 11th hour approach for the mercurial Brazilian before West Ham bring him to east London.
