7M - Liverpool in Talks for 18-Year-Old Prodigy Mateus Mane

Liverpool are reportedly engaging in discussions regarding 18-year-old Wolves sensation Mateus Mane, who has caught the attention of several top clubs since making his Premier League debut.

Mane impressed scouts during his first start on December 27 against Liverpool at Anfield. Having joined Wolves from Rochdale in 2024, the Portugal-born attacker has showcased extraordinary talent, leading to Liverpool's keen interest.

Despite having a contract until 2029, Wolves may consider selling Mane, especially as relegation to the Championship seems imminent. Recent reports indicate that Liverpool might need to invest around £45m to £50m to secure the young star.

Agents for Mateus Mane were spotted at the AXA Training Centre, suggesting they are assessing the player's potential next steps. Although these discussions were described as more of a situational understanding than formal transfer talks, it illustrates the ongoing interest in the player.

Mane has recorded two goals and two assists in what has been a breakout season, often utilized in attacking midfield and on the left wing. His arrival at Anfield would undoubtedly excite fans, and indications suggest that the process to secure his signing is already underway.
