Wolves quote massive Neves fee to Man City

Manchester City are tracking Wolves midfielder Ruben Neves.

The Sunday Times says City have been told they must pay a Premier League-record £110million to land Wolves star Neves.

Pep Guardiola's side will have to fork out around £20m more than neighbours Manchester United paid for a then world-record Paul Pogba in 2016.

The Etihad side are in the market for a new midfielder after two of their summer targets joined other clubs.

Fred went to United and Jorginho joined old boss Maurizio Sarri at Chelsea.

City are said to retain a strong interest in 21-year-old Portuguese sensation Neves, who Nuno Espirito Santo's side paid around £14m for in July last year.

Wolves, owned by Chinese investors, are said to have rebuffed two approaches for Neves during the summer.
