Reliable journalist issues transfer claim on Wolves star

Journalist Fabrizio Romano has revealed Wolves midfielder Matheus Nunes will be a target for Liverpool in the upcoming transfer window even if another player in that position is signed.

What’s the latest on Nunes and Wolves?

Reds manager Jurgen Klopp seems keen to add depth to that part of the field in the summer and even though Jude Bellingham is understood to be a priority target, it seems as though they could be after another transfer too.

Indeed, Julen Lopetegui may be concerned to learn that key Wolves midfielder Nunes is potentially wanted by Liverpool on top of the club’s aim to land the Borussia Dortmund star.

That is at least according to Romano who explained on his latest YouTube video that the Molineux ace is “appreciated” by the Reds as they look to upgrade their options in the middle of the park.

He said (4:04): “Matheus Nunes from Wolverhampton remains really appreciated [by Liverpool].”

Could Nunes leave Wolves already?

While Nunes only arrived in the Premier League at the start of this season having completed a club record £38m move from Sporting, an exit could soon be on the cards already.

Indeed, in January, Liverpool were tipped to make a £44m swoop for the Portuguese player having nearly signed him in the first place before he ended up at Molineux.

In his debut season, Nunes has already established himself as a regular in the Wolves team. But with an average 6.55 WhoScored rating per game – the ninth-best in the squad – he’s not necessarily been a superstar.

With that in mind, if a decent offer comes in and Lopetegui’s side can make a profit on that £38m, perhaps it could be good business to sell and replace him with someone who might be a better fit.
