Speculation into his future at Wolves may be over as Portuguese international committed to a wolf tattoo.

The midfield maestro has been the subject of transfer speculation ever since his sparkling performances during the club's title-winning Championship season.

Now, the Portuguese international is getting a wolf tattoo taking up most of his left arm with a video of the artwork appearing online.

Posted on Twitter by tattoo artist Willy G Tattoo, the outline for his new ink can be seen, depicting a wolf head emerging from behind trees.

The award-winning Northern Irish tattooist has flown into Wolverhampton especially for Neves' new ink.

Twitter user HelderTanner10 responded saying "Ruben Neves is a wolf."

While another fan on social media called Wayne of Wolves said: "Please post finished Tattoo with Ruben saying Wolves ay we."

Neves wasn't the first Wolves player that had his ink done by Willy G, with the tattoo artist posting a video on Twitter on April 29 of him creating a piece for striker Leo Bonatini.

The Brazilian was having a large chest tattoo done by the same artist who it seems also flew over to the Black Country for the work.
