Wolverhampton Wanderers’ Rúben Neves is a topic of discussion at Barcelona, according to multiple claims from the Catalan media.
Saturday’s edition of Sport takes a look at players the La Liga side want to sign in the coming windows.
For midfield, Barca must first sell Frenkie de Jong before bringing in a new player in the same position. The Wolves star gets a mention as the Blaugrana ‘really like’ him.
It’s claimed the Catalan club have planned to sign the Portugal international next summer, when he will have a year left on his contract at Molineux,
A significant financial injection to Barcelona’s finances could ‘speed things up’, possibly for Neves to arrive at the Camp Nou in January.
Mundo Deportivo also state Xavi Hernández’s side must offload some of their own players before making additions in the winter market.
The newspaper explains that Jorge Mendes can help Barca with exits and also with new signings.
On Thursday, the super-agent made a trip to Barcelona and met with the Spanish club’s leaders, where they discussed several cases.
Among them is the possibility for Barca to sign the Wolves player, after Mendes ‘offered him again’.
If Xavi’s side miss out on Neves in January, they may look to sign him next summer.
