Story updated
The story in brief
11-second readMateus Mane was a rare glimmer of hope for Wolves in their Premier League relegation campaign of 2025-26, and Matt Jarvis has told GOAL why getting kicked in the Championship for a year will serve the talented wonderkid well.
Rumour · This claim is unconfirmed.
From the source
Asked if Mane, who represented England at U18 level but now turns out for Portugal’s U21 team, remains on course to become a Premier League superstar, Jarvis - who was speaking in association with the latest Midnite Express initiative that will be taking Wolves fans to Wrexham in style this weekend - told GOAL: “Funnily enough, I mentored the Wolves academy players the last couple of years and he was one of my mentees.
Not going to say that I did everything! I only had him for one session because he was going through a bit of a contract situation.
I don't think he came properly until it was sorted. “But he's an exceptional talent. I think that's because as a youngster, you have no fear.
