Liverpool reportedly made late enquiries about Wolves teenager Mateus Mane before the transfer window shut, according to EPL Index, with Manchester United also said to be keeping tabs on the 18-year-old.
Wolves, though, are understood to have stood firm on any potential departure, unwilling to let the highly-rated youngster leave despite interest from two of the Premier League's traditional heavyweights.
The report suggests both Liverpool and United see Mane as a long-term prospect worth monitoring, though no concrete bid or formal approach is detailed beyond exploratory interest as the window drew to a close.
With Wolves keen to keep hold of one of their brightest young talents, any move for Mane looks unlikely in the short term — but expect his name to resurface as a transfer target when the market reopens, particularly if either Anfield or Old Trafford decide to firm up their interest with an official approach.
