Sporting, Benfica and Porto are among the clubs said to be interested in Mateus Mané, the young Portugal under-21 international who currently plays for Wolverhampton. Liverpool and Manchester United are also reportedly keeping an eye on 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 manoeuvre in any potential negotiation. Even so, the possibility of the Portuguese footballer receiving offers during the reopening of the transfer window is beginning to gather pace, according to 'Team Talk'.
So far, Mateus Mané has made seven appearances this season, although he has yet to score. Despite those numbers, the youngster continues to be seen as a player with potential and has attracted the attention of internationally renowned 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 ranks to move to England, where he joined Rochdale’s academy before continuing his career in English football.
The youngster’s market value also helps explain the growing interest surrounding his name. According to Transfermarkt, 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.
