Wolves technical director Scott Sellars admits that the Premier League club could sell Ruben Neves this summer but that the “ideal situation” is that the midfielder stays.
Neves has spent the last five seasons at Molineux since swapping Porto for the Championship back in July 2017 with Wolves paying £15.8m for his services.
The Portugal international has emerged as one of their most important players over that time and he has been courted by a number of clubs in recent years.

This could be the summer he finally leaves Wolves though with strong speculation that both Manchester United and Barcelona are interested in the 25-year-old.
And Sellars has conceded that some players will be sold in the summer transfer window but their intention is to keep hold of Neves if they can.
“There’s probably some players that will be moving out and I’ll certainly be pushing and driving hard to get that money to spend,” Sellars told Birmingham Live.
“I certainly get the sense that would be the feeling of what I’m allowed to do, so anything that does happen I want to spend the money and certainly try to improve the squad and try to make us progress.
“Ruben’s a top player; Ruben’s been fantastic this season and I think showed again his quality, also I think showed how happy he is here, so I think that’s something we as a club know as well.
“The ideal situation is we want him to stay, and I’ve spoken to him about it. But I’m also realistic that when you’ve got an outstanding player then the top clubs are going to come and try to see what the situation is. Again, it will be discussed, and what’s right for the club, and will certainly be something we’ll look at.”
