Top Premier League club are set to make a second bid for Matheus Nunes, despite his modest stats for Wolves

As reported by Daily Mail, Manchester City are preparing to make an improved offer for Wolves midfielder Matheus Nunes. However, they are ready to back out if the price becomes too steep. Recent reports indicate that Wolves turned down Man City's initial bid of £47 million for the Portuguese talent.

With Kevin De Bruyne facing a serious injury and Ilkay Gundogan's departure to Barcelona, the reigning Treble champions require more options in midfield. Matheus Nunes, who showcased his skills in Wolves' recent match against Manchester United, has emerged as a potential solution.

Initially eyeing West Ham's Lucas Paqueta, Man City have shifted focus after learning about alleged betting breaches involving the Brazilian midfielder.

Although Nunes has shown considerable talent, as evidenced by Man City's interest, his statistics with Wolves have been modest. Since joining for a club-record fee last summer, he has scored one goal and provided just one assist in 41 matches for the team from the west Midlands.
