Sporting, Benfica and Porto are among the clubs reported to be interested in Mateus Mané, the young Portugal under-21 international who currently plays for Wolverhampton. Liverpool and Manchester United are also said to be monitoring the progress of the 18-year-old attacking midfielder.
The player is under contract until 2029, a situation that gives the English club room to maneuver in any potential negotiations. Even so, the possibility of the Portuguese footballer receiving offers during the reopening of the transfer window is starting to gain momentum, according to 'Team Talk'.
So far, Mateus Mané has made seven appearances this season, although he has yet to score any goals. Despite the numbers, the youngster continues to be seen as a player with potential and has attracted the attention of internationally prominent clubs.
Mané’s journey began in Portugal, but the footballer left the country at a very young age. In 2016, he left Barreirense’s youth academy to move to England, where he joined Rochdale’s academy before continuing his career in English football.
Mateus Mané is valued at €20 million, a figure that could serve as a reference point if Wolverhampton, the club that signed João Virgínia, receives concrete approaches in January.
