Liverpool fans have been left frustrated by news that Matheus Nunes, who was a target for the club, is set to join Wolves.
The midfielder has been a major part of Sporting Lisbon's success in recent years, helping them claim league and cup success in Portugal. His rise to prominence had seen him linked with a move to a major European power, but none have come in and a switch to Molineux is edging closer.
Wolves have exercised the Portuguese market effectively since their takeover several years ago and are due to spend a club-record fee of £38million plus add-ons on Nunes. He will partner the likes of Ruben Neves and Joao Moutinho in the middle of the park, whereas Liverpool appear unlikely to make any more midfield additions this summer.
