Benfica, Porto, and Sporting are among several Portuguese giants monitoring the progress of 18-year-old Wolves winger Mateus Mané, a Portuguese and English dual national. The teenager has been capped for Portugal at the U21 level and has also attracted interest from England. Liverpool and Manchester United, described as long-term admirers, have both held conversations regarding the player. It was reported that Liverpool made contact during the final days of the transfer window to explore the possibility of a deal, considering either a permanent signing or a buy-to-loan-back arrangement. However, Wolves maintained that Mané was not for sale and did not consider his departure, with his contract running until June 2029. While the player was not actively seeking a move, he would have been open to one if the club had been willing to approve a transfer. Mané's current market value is listed by Transfermarkt as €20.00m. Reports from July 2026 cited a Wolverhampton asking price of £35 million and a potential offer of £20 million from Manchester United.
