Chelsea, Liverpool in Porto contact for Ruben Neves

Chelsea and Liverpool are eyeing Porto midfielder Ruben Neves.

A Bola says England is the most likely destination for Neves this summer.

It is said Chelsea and Liverpool have long been pursuing the midfielder and launched talks over a potential move.

Antonio Conte wants to strengthen his midfield following the Blues' title glory and return to the Champions League, with Monaco's Tiemoue Bakayoko being chased too.

Jurgen Klopp's Liverpool, meanwhile, are also bolstering their squad and have a big budget to fund arrivals, says the Daily Express.

Neves, tied to Porto until 2019, is valued at around £30m.
