La Liga giants FC Barcelona have been offered the opportunity to sign Portuguese international Ruben Neves in the upcoming summer window.
Ruben Neves joined the Portuguese Giants Porto academy at a very young age. The midfielder soon rose through the ranks and graduated from the Porto academy.
Following his promotion to the first team, Rubén Neves soon consolidated his place in the starting eleven. Neves became the youngest Porto player to score a goal in the Primeira Liga. He later became the youngest player to captain a team in the UEFA Champions League. Neves played three seasons at Porto.
Finally, in 2017, the Portuguese midfielder joined Wolverhampton Wanderers’ championship team. In his first season with the club, he helped Wolves win the championship and qualify for the English Premier League. Since then, he has played more than 200 games for Wolves and is one of the pillars of their squad.
Barcelona offered to replace Busquets
Sergio Busquets, who will soon turn 35, has served Barcelona for more than a decade. His contribution to the Catalan team is incalculable and he continues to be a very important part of them.
However, Busquets’ contract will expire at the end of this season. The Spaniard, who has already had his best moment, does not want to continue at the club and will leave next summer.
So Barcelona is already looking for players who can replace the Spaniard at the Camp Nou. And the name that has been linked the most is that of the Spanish midfielder MartÃn Zubiemendi.
However, the Spaniard recently extended his contract with Real Sociedad. Although he has a termination clause of 60 million euros, Zubimendi’s loan is very complicated at the moment.
Now, according to Mundo Deportivo, super agent Jorge Mendes has offered Barcelona the chance to sign Ruben Neves next summer.
Neves’ contract at Wolverhampton runs out in 2024 and if a good offer comes through, Wolves will be willing to sell the midfielder.
Previously, it was rumored that Barcelona would sign the midfielder last summer. However, a deal was never reached due to the midfielder’s high price tag.
English Premier League giants Arsenal were also heavily linked with Neves last summer. Like Barcelona, ​​he did not want to pay the amount asked by Wolves.
The Gunners will ever look to sign the midfielder next summer. So if Barcelona want to get the Portuguese international’s signings, they will have to move fast.
Ruben Neves is going to represent Portugal in the upcoming World Cup in Qatar 2022. Any good performance in the perennial event will only drive his shares up.
