Mateus Mane is determined to ‘become a better player every day’ after progressing into Vitor Pereira’s first-team and signing his inaugural professional contract with Wolves this summer.
The exciting young forward made his Premier League debut against Brighton & Hove Albion at Molineux during the latter part of the 2024/25 season having impressed the head coach and the senior players in training, and now he’s put pen to paper on his first Old Gold contract, the 17-year-old is aiming to do everything possible to show why the club have put their faith in him.
On signing his first contract
“It’s an amazing feeling for me, my family, my friends – everyone. I’ve been working the whole time for this and now it’s happened, I’m really proud of myself and I’m really happy.
“A lot of work has gone into getting to this stage, because I came from a non-league club and to get a professional contract at a Premier League club, it’s a dream come true.
“But now it’s happened, I’ve just got to keep working and keep working to try and get that next contract and become a better player every day.”
