Wolverhampton Wanderers are reportedly eyeing Portuguese starlet Joao Never as Julen Lopetegui plans for a summer revamp.
Despite the financial burden, the club is expected to offload players, creating an opportunity for improvement.
The latest reports link Wolves with an 18-year-old Portuguese talent who could potentially be a successor to Ruben Neves in more ways than one.
According to Portuguese outlet A Bola (via Sport Witness), the Midlands outfit have emerged as a potential suitor for Benfica's young prodigy.
On the other hand, the Premier League side would face competition from Bayern Munich for the talented teenager, whose current release clause stands at €60 million (£52 million).
Wolverhampton have built a strong Portuguese foundation since their promotion from the Championship, with the midfield duo of Neves and Joao Moutinho becoming vital at Molineux.
However, this summer signals the end of an era, as Moutinho's departure has been confirmed, with Ruben remaining to be involved in a transfer saga, linked with a move to Barcelona.
