None kof us want Neves to leave, this window, or anytime, ideally.
But we also know it's quite likely sometime.
Rumours always around him with espc Barca, but also, and again now Liverpool in their desperation.
But what I can't get my head around is valuation, when everyone raves and says Declan Rice will go this year for £100m, why do people keep talking Ruben down from even £70m to around £40m!
Seems ludicrous - espc in our meetings recently with W Ham, Neves has seen off Rice regularly!

If he goes, has to be £70 million at least.

Anyone know if there is a sign-on clause with Porto?

Yes, I was only saying this the other day at work! I think they have similar lengths left to their contracts too. If Rice is 100m then Neves has to be more! (More realistically both the 70m mark) Rice being English or not Neves is on another level to Rice!

{Ed001's Note - but Neves would not count as home-grown to another English team, so his value is less to them.}
