"Wolves accept that it's going to be very hard for them to keep Mateus Mane, one source told me. This is one of the most outstanding talents in the country, and his rapid progression is no secret to Premier League scouts. There has mostly been a lot of speculation about Manchester United pursuing Mane, and while they have been mentioned to me as one of his potential suitors, for now the information I'm getting is that Liverpool are leading the race for the 18-year-old's signature."
"The England youth international won't come cheap, however, with Wolves' current valuation being around the 50m mark. If they truly stand firm on that, then I wouldn't expect Liverpool to go ahead and pay it. One name that is yet to get much mention, unless I'm mistaken, is Arsenal. They're also big admirers of Mane and are keen to mix it up by bringing in more young players this summer. With a focus on winning trophies straight away,"
Mateus Mane, an 18-year-old England youth international at Wolves, is attracting strong interest from Liverpool, Manchester United and Arsenal. Wolves are resigned to likely losing Mane this summer as relegation looks probable, and early transfer conversations have already taken place. Liverpool are currently leading the race after sounding out his representatives and holding positive initial discussions, and are reportedly prepared to make a bid. Wolves value Mane at around £50m, a figure that could deter suitors. Manchester United have been linked but appear less advanced. Arsenal are also admirers and are keen to recruit more young players while pursuing immediate trophies.
