Wolves midfielder Joao Moutinho believes Molineux will become a magnet for world class talent.

The 32-year-old Portugal midfielder says Wolves are like Manchester City '10 years ago' – as they set about implementing their long-term goals this season.

The Euro 2016 winner told the Express & Star: “You never know (if we could replicate Manchester City). You never know the future.

“All the clubs want to be the best club in the world.

“Manchester City are one of those clubs. Maybe 10 years ago, they were like us.

“But we need to talk about the reality, the present.

“If you do a good present, you can be better the next year.

“You need to focus 100 per cent on this year as it's very important.

“After that, we see what is better. If we do good things, I think it's easier for the club to spend more money on more very good players – and it's easier for players to want to come here."
