Liverpool move on to discussing transfer target after Matheus Nunes contract clause change

Wolves have removed a clause in Matheus Nunes' contract that would have allowed him to join Liverpool for £44million.

Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp is on the hunt for a new central midfielder and is thought to be an admirer of the 24-year-old. Yet Wolves swooped to sign Nunes from Sporting Lisbon in a club-record £38m deal last summer, beating Liverpool to his signature.

The Reds could have landed Nunes for £44m this summer due to a clause in his contract, but that has now been removed. As such, Klopp and his recruitment team are now looking at other central midfielders - including Brighton talent Moises Caicedo.
