Ruben Neves: Wolves captain joins Saudi Arabia's Al-Hilal for club record £47m
Neves said at the end of last season he was ambitious amid interest from Barcelona, but with the La Liga champions not able to come up with an acceptable offer Neves opted for Saudi Arabia.
It is also the biggest transfer fee paid by a Saudi Pro League side, dwarfing the reported 18m euro deal that took Matheus Pereira from West Brom to Al-Hilal in 2021. He added: "The way we worked together, the way we fought for the club, what we achieved and all the moments we spent together was unbelievable.
"My kids grew up in Wolverhampton and they were so happy here. Me and my lovely wife will never forget the time we had here as a family."
