Midfielder to face disciplinary action over stopping trainingWolves adamant City must pay at least £60m for midfielder
Matheus Nunes has effectively gone on strike at Wolves after stopping training in a bid to force through a move to Manchester City. Wolves rejected City’s opening bid of around £47m for Nunes out of hand and are holding out for north of £60m.
City want to add to their midfield options after losing Kevin De Bruyne for about four months following hamstring surgery and quickly shifted their focus to Nunes after their move for Lucas Paquetá was derailed by a Football Association investigation into an alleged betting breach by the Brazilian earlier this year.
