Tottenham Hotspur 'identify Ruben Neves as summer target'

Wolverhampton Wanderers midfielder Ruben Neves has reportedly emerged as a target for Tottenham Hotspur ahead of this summer's transfer window.

The 23-year-old has again been in impressive form for Wolves during the 2019-20 campaign, scoring four times and contributing two assists in 43 appearances in all competitions.

The Portugal international has a contract at Molineux until June 2023, but according to Le 10 Sport, Tottenham are weighing up a summer move for the central midfielder.

The report claims that Neves 'particularly appeals' to Spurs boss Jose Mourinho, while the former Porto youngster would allegedly be open to moving to the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.

Manchester United and Manchester City have both previously been linked with the playmaker, who surprisingly joined Wolves in July 2017 when the club were still in the Championship.

Mourinho's side are also allegedly interested in signing Flamengo midfielder Gerson.
