Wolverhampton Wanderers are interested in Barcelona right-back Nelson Semedo as they look to replace Matt Doherty, according to Sportwitness.
After 10 years at the Molineux Stadium, the Republic of Ireland International joined Tottenham Hotspur last month, and manager Nuno Espirito Santo believes that Semedo could be perfect to fill the spot he left behind.
Wolves have hired super-agent Jorge Mendes to help get a move across the line as they are now trying to get a deal done for the Portuguese international.
For the 26-year-old Barcelona wants around £ 37 million, and if the Wolves are ready to break their transfer record, the right-back remains to be seen.
Semedo has played 124 games for the Spanish giants, helping them to win back-to-back La Liga titles in their first two seasons at Camp Nou, since arriving from Benfica in the summer of 2017.
The Portuguese brings speed, ball control, dribbling, and excellent passing range to the table, and will no doubt be a good addition to the Wolves squad.
Barcelona player will feel very much at home if he seals a move as the club already features a base Portuguese cadre.
However, it does not seem that Barca is keen to let one of their key players leave despite their need for a shake-up, and Wolves might have to look elsewhere for the right-back they need.
