According to Caught Offside, several top clubs in the Premier League are keen on signing Wolverhampton Wanderers winger Mateus Mane this summer.

Being almost certain to suffer relegation at this point, Wolves are apparently resigned to losing the 18-year-old attacker at the end of the season. Manchester United are interested and Arsenal are big admirers of his talent, but at the moment, Liverpool are leading the race for his signature. They are believed to be the only club to have made contact with his representatives so far, and to have prepared a bid, with Wolves demanding around £50million for the player under contract until 2029.

Having missed out on Antoine Semenyo, who left Bournemouth to join Manchester City in January, the Merseysiders are in need of wide attacking players. They sold Luis Diaz to Bayern Munich last year, and at the age of 33, Mohamed Salah isn’t nearly as effective as he once was. Rio Ngumoha is 17, and head coach Arne Slot still doesn’t appear to trust Federico Chiesa too much.

After all, Liverpool did very well when they last signed a player named Mane, didn’t they?
