Wolverhampton Wanderers have reportedly intensified their interest in signing Barcelona midfielder Nico Gonzalez this summer amid talks surrounding the future of Ruben Neves.
Along with Manchester United, Arsenal and Newcastle United, Barcelona have been linked with interest in signing the Portuguese international midfielder this summer. However, Wolves ’ asking price of €50m (£42.7m) is said to be out of Barcelona’s reach, with the Spanish club’s financial situation not making a move viable for them.
Instead, Barcelona are said to be keen on trying to sign Neves by offloading players in their current squad to Molineux. Reports from Sport (as published by Sport Witness ) claim that while Wolves are not keen on either Riqui Puig, Oscar Mingueza or Martin Braithwaite, they have “intensified interest” in a move for Barcelona midfielder Gonzalez, who they could look to use in part of a deal for Neves.
