Wolves remain in talks to sign £51m Sporting Lisbon midfielder Matheus Nunes... and Bruno Lage's side are also eyeing a move for Burnley centre-back Nathan Collins this summer

Wolves remain in talks with Sporting Lisbon for midfielder Matheus Nunes, as they look to bolster their squad this summer.

The 23-year-old has been linked with a move to Molineux for a number of months and previous reports in his homeland suggest Wolves are now ready to move on a club record deal for Nunes.

It is thought a bid in the region of £40million could be in the pipeline, while Sporting are understood to have a £51million release clause in Nunes' contract.

It would be a huge coup for Wolves considering Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola described Nunes as world class earlier this season after a 5-0 win over Lisbon in the Champions League.
