Gary O'Neill has confirmed Wolves have rejected a bid from Manchester City for midfielder Matheus Nunes.
MEN Sport reported this week that Nunes and Crystal Palace star Ebere Eze are on a shortlist of potential transfer targets. City want to sign another attacking midfielder after Kevin de Bruyne was ruled out until 2024 with an injury.
With seven days of the transfer window remaining, a deal for either is a way off. Neither Wolves or Crystal Palace want to sell key assets with such little time to replace them.
City were initially interested in Lucas Paqueta and West Ham turned down their opening bid. They have not renewed that interest with the Hammers clear he is not for sale.

Wolves may have been receptive to an offer earlier in the window but after selling Ruben Neves, Nathan Collins and Raul Jimenez, they are on the right line of Financial Fair Play. As a result, they have knocked back City's offer and O'Neil doesn't want to sell.
"He’s an important player for us and has four, potentially five, years left on his contract," O'Neil said on Friday ahead of a weekend game with Everton. “He’s suspended for the weekend, unfortunately, but we rejected a bid because we didn’t feel it met our valuation and we move on."
Manchester City's offer has been reported to be in the region of £47million. Nunes joined Wolves from Portuguese club Sporting for an initial £38m last summer, with another £4.2m agreed in add-ons.
