Wolves midfielder Ruben Neves has paid tribute to Liverpool playmaker Thiago Alcantara.

Neves rates the Spain international among the best players he's faced.

He said, "Thiago is definitely one of the toughest. He is so smart and is also very good technically and physically.

"(N'Golo) Kanté is also very tough but my first choice would still be Thiago.

"I usually always answer Xabi Alonso and Sergio Busquets on this question. But if we're just talking about the Premier League, I'll choose Thiago."
