Liverpool and Chelsea monitoring Brazil-born midfielder

Premier League rivals Liverpool and Chelsea are reportedly monitoring Sporting CP central midfielder Matheus Nunes.

Meanwhile, Wolverhampton Wanderers have been linked with him for over a month now and the two big clubs will now have to fight for his signature in the coming days.

At Liverpool, Matheus Nunes would be a perfect fit. He’s 6ft and has experience playing in a double pivot. Though he primarily plays on the left for Sporting, he has also been used on the right. The 23-year-old played 50 matches for Sporting in all competitions last season and registered four goals and five assists.

Sporting want €45 million plus €5 million in add-ons for Nunes. Wolves have been tracking him to replace Ruben Neves, who could potentially move this summer.

However, regardless of the links, none of Liverpool, Chelsea or Wolves have made any official bids yet.
