Wolverhampton Wanderers midfielder Ruben Neves has reportedly emerged as a top transfer target for Arsenal.
With just over two years remaining on his contract, the Portugal international is naturally being linked with a wide range of top European clubs, including Barcelona.
Last week, Wolves head coach Bruno Lage claimed that any team who were admirers of the player should be prepared to pay in excess of £80m for the 25-year-old's services.
According to Sky Sports News, Wolves' valuation is more in the region of £50m and £60m, a stance which may be accepted by the Gunners.
The report claims that the North London outfit view Neves as one of their preferred targets ahead of the summer window as they bid to strengthen in the centre of the pitch.
Although Neves is currently sidelined with a knee injury and is not expected back until May, that is unlikely to deter any interest in his signature.
