Liverpool are reportedly back on the market for Wolves’ Matheus Nunes and the midfielder’s manager Julen Lopetegui has been talking about the star’s future.
The Reds have been following the Portuguese midfielder for some time and were linked with a move for Nunes over the summer before the Wolves star decided to move to Molineux from Sporting CP.
A Telegraph report has stated that Liverpool will try to bring the 24-year-old to Anfield over the next few weeks, failing to do so over the course of the summer, as Jurgen Klopp desperately needs another midfielder.

Speaking about Nunes’ possible departure in January, Wolves manager Julen Lopetegui has said the 24-year-old is happy at the club.
The Spaniard said through Fabrizio Romano: “We can say that Matheus is our player, he is a Wolves player and he is very happy to be here.”
All managers are expected to say something similar in regards to transfers, but this move would be strange for Liverpool considering they passed up the opportunity just a few months ago.
