According to the Express and Star, Wolves are not prepared to meet Benfica’s ‘extortionate’ asking price for Dias – previously linked with Juve.
Wolverhampton Wanderers have reportedly gone cold on Ruben Dias and will instead bid €30m for Juventus defender Daniele Rugani.
According to the Express and Star, Wolves are not prepared to meet Benfica’s ‘extortionate’ asking price for Dias – previously linked with Juve.
With that in mind, Gazzetta dello Sport’s Nicolo Schira follows up an initial report from Sportitalia, explaining the English side are ‘ready’ to offer €30m for Rugani.
That could satisfy the Bianconeri’s demands of a permanent transfer after they recently chucked out Arsenal’s proposal of two-year loan with an option to buy.
The 25-year-old is going into the new season as the Old Lady’s fifth-choice centre-back, behind Giorgio Chiellini, Leonardo Bonucci, Matthijs de Ligt and Merih Demiral.
However, Wolves will need to get a move on as the transfer window for Premier League clubs shuts on Thursday.
