Wolves send scout to watch Joao Felix?

Wolverhampton Wanderers reportedly maintain their interest in Benfica youngster Joao Felix.

The West Midlands outfit are one of a number of clubs who have been linked with an approach for the 19-year-old, who has impressed for the Portuguese giants this season.

Reports have suggested that Felix could cost over £100m, but according to Record, that has not stopped Wolves from monitoring the player's development.

A scout from Wolves was allegedly in attendance as Benfica faced Dinamo Zagreb in the Europa League last 16 on Thursday night.

Felix played the full 90 minutes in Croatia, but the playmaker could not prevent his side from suffering a 1-0 defeat.

The forward has contributed nine goals and four assists from 16 outings in Portugal's top flight during the current campaign.
