Matheus Nunes has already given a verdict on his future, with Chelsea said to be among several Premier League sides eager to secure his signature. The 23-year-old has been heavily linked with an exit from Sporting CP this summer, but it seems as if the midfielder is satisfied and keen to respect his contract at the Estádio José Alvalade.
According to A Bola, via the Express, the Blues will look to offer around £39million for the Portugal international plus an additional £4million in add-ons. The west Londoners are reportedly looking to capitalise on the reluctance among potential suitors to table bids, with Wolverhampton Wanderers and Everton said to be in the transfer pursuit.
Bruno Lage's side have reportedly held 'extensive negotiations' with the Portuguese giants but, despite tabling a respectable offer, Nunes has doubts over a move to Molineux. And, with Ruben Neves no longer poised to leave Wolves, doubt has been cast as to how the club will fund an offer to rival the west Londoners' interest.
