New Wolves boss Lopetegui makes clear Neves plans

New Wolves boss Julen Lopetegui is adamant that Ruben Neves will stay at the club.

The new coach of the Premier League side was already fielding questions about his star players.

Wolves are staring relegation in the face after a miserable start to the Premier League season, as they are bottom of the table after 14 matches.

On Neves, who Lopetegui coached at Wolves, he told reporters: “His commitment with Wolves is 100 per cent, I feel that when I saw him play in the last matches. I'm sure he is here for the rest of the season.

“I don't know what is going to happen in June, it's so far, but the future of Ruben Neves is showing the rest of his team-mates he is a leader here. He is the captain and playing in the best way and the best version for the rest oft he season, this is his aim.

“He is an important part of the team but he is part. All the players are part of the team and all of the players are nothing without the team."
