Liverpool and Manchester City are set to battle it out for Wolves midfielder Matheus Nunes.
Nunes only signed for Wolves in the summer transfer window, but after a disappointing start to the season, the Midlands club may lose some of their best players in the near future.
The Portuguese midfielder impressed during his time in Portugal, particularly against Manchester City in the Champions League.
Now, according to the Sunday Mirror (via the Daily Express), Manchester City and Liverpool are ready to fight for Nunes.

The report claims that Nunes delayed his move to Wolves in the hope that Liverpool would try to sign him, but that did not materialize.
Liverpool’s midfield problems have been apparent so far this season, so it wouldn’t be a surprise to see them make a move in the coming months.
If Wolves’ poor form continues, a player of Nunes’s caliber won’t want to play for a team struggling to stay in the Premier League, and the attraction of playing in Europe, be it Manchester City or Liverpool, could be too. down.
