Liverpool are interested in signing midfielder Matheus Nunes at the start of next season. He was heavily linked with a move to Anfield before his transfer to Wolverhampton Wanderers during the summer window.
Wolves have signed the Portuguese international in a deal worth £38 million. The 23-year-old midfielder has had a mixed start in the Premier League. He has played 14 league games so far, registering one assist.
According to the Telegraph, Liverpool have revived their interest in Wolverhampton Wanderers midfielder Matheus Nunes. The Reds want to bring him to Anfield during next summer’s transfer window. They are willing to pay Wolves a transfer fee of around £44m to secure his services.
Jurgen Klopp has struggled with his options in midfield this season. Arthur Melo, Thiago, Fabinho, Naby Keita, Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain and Jordan Henderson have suffered injuries so far this season.

According to Matteo Moretto, the German coach is looking to add two or three midfielders to his squad. Jude Bellingham, Moises Caicedo, Soyfan Amrabat and Enzo Fernandez have also been linked with a move to Anfield in recent weeks.
The Merseyside outfit signed Cody Gakpo from PSV Eindhoven earlier in this window. However, Jurgen Klopp recently hinted that the club needs to sell before making more reinforcements for the team in this transfer window.
He said: “Now I’m seven years and a few months here and every transfer window is pretty much the same,” explained the Liverpool manager. “We talk about these things as if money doesn’t play a role. Like, ‘Who cares.’ If there’s something we can do in January that means the right player and the financial situation… then we’ll do it, but if not, we won’t do it.
Meanwhile, Naby Keita, Roberto Firmino and Nats Phillips have all been linked with a departure from Anfield in this transfer window.
