Prior to the transfer season shutting, Man United is once more being connected to the possibility of signing Wolves midfielder Ruben Neves.
Ruben Neves, a midfielder for Wolves, would not rule out leaving Molineux this summer despite new speculations linking him to a transfer to Manchester United.
Before the transfer window closes in less than a month, United is desperate to bolster their midfield. Frenkie de Jong, a midfielder for Barcelona, was declared their top target back in May, and negotiations have been going on ever since.
The Manchester Evening News reported at the end of June that United and Barcelona had reached an agreement in principle to bring De Jong to Old Trafford.
However, negotiations have stalled due to the midfielder’s outstanding debt to the La Liga team, which amounts to millions of pounds in deferred wages. According to recent rumors, Chelsea and Barcelona are currently in “direct talks” for the midfielder’s transfer.
Neves, who has recently been constantly linked with a move to Old Trafford, has been suggested as a potential substitute. The Portuguese international has never been United’s priority aim, but he would make a good fallback choice if Plan A doesn’t work.
In tears at the conclusion of the team’s final home game of the previous season, Neves—who is under contract with Wolves through 2024—suggested that his time at Molineux may be coming to an end. He later acknowledged that he could depart.
In May, Neves told The Athletic, “Everyone knows exactly what football is about, what our lives are about. “Since our careers are so brief, we must seize the chances that come our way.

Of all, we all have dreams, and we must all work quickly to realize those aspirations. Let’s wait and see. I can’t talk about it too much.
The midfielder, who turned 25 earlier this year, first signed with Wolves in 2017 and has since embarked on an incredible adventure with the organization. He joined them when they were in the Championship and has helped them establish themselves as a Premier League team.
“This club means everything to me and my family,” Neves continued. My three children, all of whom were born while I was living here, spent their whole lives in Wolverhampton.
“That means a lot to me, and I value the people greatly because they made it possible for me to settle down here. Every single person is really essential to my family and me.
“It would be really difficult for me and my family if I had to go. But as I just said, we have dreams that must be fulfilled quickly. And if anything does happen, I don’t know how it’s going to be, which is why I was so emotional during the last home game.
“It was extremely essential if it was my last game. However, as I have stated, I am still in the dark. I’m currently only considering my upcoming holidays and the national team.”
