Tottenham join Liverpool in race for Neves

According to the Mirror, Tottenham are set to join Liverpool in the race for Wolves star Ruben Neves this summer.

Neves has starred for Wolves this season after his £16m move from Porto in the 2017 summer transfer window, and has helped the club secure promotion back to the Premier League.

His impressive season has alerted the interest of Liverpool in recent weeks and now Spurs have become another top flight club to show interest in the Portuguese midfielder.

Liverpool already have a promising central midfielder joining them this summer, with RB Leipzig’s Naby Keita agreeing terms with the side last year.

Tottenham’s interest comes due to the fact that Moussa Dembele’s contract ends in 12 months time and they want to replace the 30-year- old with Neves, who is just 21.

Neves is one of the most talented youngsters in the world right now, so it comes at no surprise that two big clubs want to snatch the Portuguese international from Wolves and it is to be expected that many more big clubs will be interested in the midfielder too.
