"Likely to go in the summer" - Reliable journalist now drops fresh worrying claim on Wolves star

Wolverhampton Wanderers midfielder Ruben Neves is ‘likely’ to depart the club in the summer transfer window, according to journalist Tom Collomosse.

The 24-year-old has been linked with a move away from Molineux in recent months following several impressive performances in the Wolves engine room.

Neves has continued to shine alongside compatriot Joao Moutinho in the middle of the pitch, though, achieving a FotMob season rating of 7.46, the highest amongst his teammates.

A report in The Sun last month claimed that the Red Devils were weighing up an offer for Neves, whose price tag rose to £40m, in the January window after Ralf Rangnick decided he needed some midfield reinforcements.
