West Ham 'submit £25million offer' for £51m Wolves target Matheus Nunes... after Liverpool pulled out of race to sign Sporting Lisbon star

West Ham United have submitted an audacious bid in the region of £25million for Sporting Lisbon midfielder Matheus Nunes.

However, the Portuguese club are reportedly demanding a minimum of £42million for the talented 23-year-old, as reported by Record.

That price would make Nunes - who is also a target for Wolves - West Ham's second biggest transfer fee after they paid £45million for Sebastien Haller in 2018.

Nunes does have a £51million release clause in his contract but no club currently looks likely of meeting that valuation for the player.
