Super-agent Jorge Mendes is reportedly working to put together a proposal which will take Wolverhampton Wanderers midfielder Ruben Neves to Barcelona this summer.

Super-agent Jorge Mendes is reportedly ready to explore very possible avenue to take Wolverhampton Wanderers midfielder Ruben Neves to Barcelona.

The future of the Portugal international - who is currently recovering from a knee injury - is a hot topic for debate with just over two years remaining on his contract.

While Manchester United continue to be linked with the player, Barcelona have been touted as a more likely destination, and it appears that Mendes is prepared to take on the challenge or orchestrating a deal.

According to Sport, the 25-year-old is "crazy" to make the switch to Camp Nou, with Mendes left to to find a proposal which suits all parties.

The report claims that Wolves hold an interest in a number of Barcelona players, the Premier League side having already signed Nelson Semedo and Francisco Trincao from the Catalan outfit in recent years.

Furthermore, it is claimed that Neves has convinced Barcelona boss Xavi that he could fit into his system and potentially act as a long-term replacement for Sergio Busquets.
