The midfielder was thought to be on the way to Burnley last week, but the deal fell through at the last moment due to a disagreement over personal terms.

It is unclear what the fee would be should Wolves make the move, but he would face a lot of competition in the centre of the park after Joao Moutinho and Diogo Jota have already joined the club in this transfer window.
