Mateus Mané interests Benfica amid Sporting and Porto competition | OneFootball

Benfica are monitoring 18-year-old Wolverhampton midfielder Mateus Mané and could face strong competition for his signature.

Team Talk reports that Sporting, Porto, Liverpool and Manchester United are among the clubs following the Portuguese youth international.

He left Portuguese football for Rochdale’s academy in 2016, later establishing himself in England. This season he has made seven competitive appearances under head coach César Peixoto.

Wolverhampton are relaxed about his future, with his contract running until 2029.

Benfica are assessing whether to submit a formal proposal for the midfielder.

Moving early could help the Luz club steal a march on rivals in the chase for one of Europe’s emerging talents.
