Manchester United dealt blow in pursuit of Ruben Neves

The midfielder have no desire for summer move

Manchester United have prioritized signing a world class midfielder in the summer as Michael Carrick will retire at the end of the season and Marouane Fellaini’s future is yet uncertain.

The Premier League giants have been linked to host of midfielders like Napoli’s Jorginho, Lazio’s Sergej Milinkovic Savic and Shakhtar Donetsk’s Fred.

They are also interested in Wolverhampton Wanderers star Ruben Neves.

Ruben joined Wolves from Porto for £16 million last summer and has been a revelation for the club this season. He has caught attention with his array of impressive performances while helping his team to earn promotion to the Premier League.

The Portuguese, known for scoring wonder goals, has scored six goals and assisted one in the Championship. He has already linked with host of top Premier League clubs.

But the 21 year old has admitted that he has no desire for a summer move and believes it would be a risk for him to change clubs.

He told O Jogo as quoted by Talksport: “Right now it’s not good for me to risk a way out. I feel very good at Wolverhampton, I have no reason to leave because I’m going to play in the best league in the world.

“The fans already know me, the club too and everyone knows what I can do for the club.

“I spent a great year there and I love playing at Wolverhampton. Therefore, I have no interest in going out, because it’s the best for me and for my future.

“I came to evolve as a player and now that I’m maybe in the best phase of my career it would be a very big risk changing club. This is the right path.”
