02 Aug 2016 22:39:01
Someone more ITK will know more than me on this but got told Wolves are after Lewis McGugan from Sheff Wednesday.



03 Aug 2016 00:46:05
If people are wondering why it went so quiet about a young central defender called R Ely joining Wolves from AC Milan, it's because of the Olympics. Any deal with him will happen at the end of the month, after the tournament ends. I think, from memory, it was going to be a loan deal.



03 Aug 2016 01:39:25
Sheffield Utd midfielder Chi Adams is linked to Wolves after Birmingham's £1.7 million offer was rejected. They want £2 million and Wolves have been monitoring the situation.



03 Aug 2016 09:13:26
No we aren't, wavidsmith. You're just one of those people who is moaning because we aren't signing British dross.



03 Aug 2016 09:32:18
Well said ac,
If the British players were that good surely we would have a better showing in these competitions we seem so rubbish at.



03 Aug 2016 10:00:21
My theory, StuWolf is that it's because English players don't play abroad. They get paid too well even in L1 and L2 that moving to second tier clubs in places like France or Netherlands wouldn't appeal.

On the other hand, how many Iceland players play in Iceland?



03 Aug 2016 10:16:13
I don't care if they are British, or not. All I know is that we are keeping tabs on Che Adams, like it or not.



03 Aug 2016 10:24:08
No professional teams in Iceland.



03 Aug 2016 10:54:40
The PL is often considered the best league in the world, and that's mainly because of the foreign players. The England team was embarrassing in the Euros. The championship is going the same way, more and more good foreign players are raising the quality level. I bet an England B team drawn from the championship would be as equally embarrassing as the A team.



03 Aug 2016 10:58:51
Apparently were also looking at Luis Alberto from Liverpool who want 6 mil for him.



03 Aug 2016 13:19:49
McCormack having medical at villa 2day sky sports news.



03 Aug 2016 13:28:20
And? He's not been linked to us.



03 Aug 2016 13:34:08
Someone mentioned him here a couple of days ago. But he's always linked with a move somewhere.



03 Aug 2016 13:34:41
Despite Villa being on the verge of signing Ross McCormack, I really don't think they have any money, they are well dodgy. They only have the funds to sign RM after they've sold a could of players. Anyway sod the villa, up the Wolves!



03 Aug 2016 13:40:06
I think every Tom dick and Harry been linked with us.



03 Aug 2016 15:11:29
Alex Pritchard on his way 2 Norwich 4 medical with McCormack going 2 villa missed out on them hey ho get somebody else.



03 Aug 2016 16:20:02
Villa generated £13m by selling Clark to Newcastle and Idrissa Gueye to Everton.



02 Aug 2016 19:37:40
For those of you looking for latest on Talisca. Seems as if he's waiting on the work permit before the deal can be complete.



02 Aug 2016 22:00:34
Twitter saying he's agreed terms of 40k a week 16 million just waiting on work permit. Not sure how true reports are but its Abola tweeting official wolves Twitter.



02 Aug 2016 22:07:42
Hope so mate.



02 Aug 2016 22:40:43
Cant find nothing you got a link to that dantheman15? But hope its true would be a huge boost.



02 Aug 2016 22:58:04
Sidneyb here's the link:

goo.gl/lD8mld



02 Aug 2016 23:03:40
40k per week at Wolves? Glad we have 2mil each year to slosh out like that is he that good?



02 Aug 2016 23:09:46
Cheers so he's agreed then so all these people saying he's already flown over here is a load of tosh because he can't fly without jis work permit.



02 Aug 2016 23:46:31
rather spend that sort of money on a player, than a fat pie eating CEO.



03 Aug 2016 00:12:19
Sidney you can travel here without a work permit but would only have a temporary visa so he could well have flown here already and would presume he would have to sort out his work permit. He could actually sign for us without a work permit in fact and stay in the country just wouldn't be able to play for us. That's why a lot of prem clubs have feeder teams in places with relaxed work permit restrictions and a lower amount of years of residence to gain citizenship as they can loan them there until they either qualify via national selection or gain a passport for the country they are residing in. Unfortunately we have no such links so would be a case of either obtaining a work permit to play for us or the deal will fall through.



02 Aug 2016 16:42:40
Wolves are apparently battling with Nottingham Forest to sign Frazier Campbell from Crystal Palace.



02 Aug 2016 17:18:52
I seen this.

Linked with about 7 clubs.

Just his agent banding him about.



02 Aug 2016 17:58:17
Come on it's been several hours since we last signed anyone.



02 Aug 2016 18:01:03
Let him go to Forest. We can get better.



02 Aug 2016 18:05:03
Wouldn't say. I though. A few uk based players to complement the Portuguese and Viking and we will be ready to give it a go. Another forward, centre mid and centre back please.



02 Aug 2016 18:12:10
He is injured and so is Sako so why are Wolves fans saying untrue things.



02 Aug 2016 18:33:04
We need a lb aswell.



02 Aug 2016 18:55:38
Silvio will be lb, will be best since Squeak.



02 Aug 2016 18:56:28
Doherty lb, Silvio rb, iorfa CB?



02 Aug 2016 19:21:41
Realist most one here won't know who the great Squeek is mate. Best LB in my 50+ years following wolves.



02 Aug 2016 19:39:18
Yep. Best one since the 50/ 60`s era, without a doubt. Has to be one of the best players not to get a cap.



02 Aug 2016 19:45:33
Spanish, wand of a left foot.
What would he be worth.



02 Aug 2016 19:52:33
The best player we could sign .
100 per cent Lee Cattermole.



02 Aug 2016 20:18:25
What about borwick Jackson as a lb, up 4 loan? I thought he looked good b4 he got injured.



02 Aug 2016 21:51:29
We won't get cattermole, doubt Sunderland would let go. Would be good if we did though.



02 Aug 2016 23:49:49
sorry weenywolf, thought you said Boris Johnson.



03 Aug 2016 12:09:05
If he were happy to stay in the UK, I would have a punt at Bastion Sweinsteiger, he's out of favour at Utd but what a job he would do for us. Captain in the making, German organisation, Portuguese skills and Icelandic battering ram.
Tasty.



03 Aug 2016 13:22:45
7bastian would want 100k + per week at least and would never sign for us anyway, we need to be more realistic.



03 Aug 2016 16:39:50
Let me dream man, let me dream. I love watching him play, typical German, short sharp precise passing and takes no shit, also he can dish it out too. Hard as nails. Let me dream.



02 Aug 2016 16:29:51
Very early stages of enquiry about Geoff Cameron of Stoke.



02 Aug 2016 16:53:31
I would be happy with this.

Solid player, not scared of a tackle.



02 Aug 2016 16:57:44
Doubt it, he's in Stoke's first team plans.



02 Aug 2016 17:02:54
I like him can play fb cb and cdm tough tackler could be our leader, not sure if he is available though.



02 Aug 2016 18:10:47
Heard he's looking for a new captain as well, whether that be an incoming player or someone already in the club.



02 Aug 2016 15:17:33
Does anyone have an concrete update on the Anderson Talisca deal?



02 Aug 2016 16:06:24
The deal is off and he has returned to Portugal. His wage demands were to high.



02 Aug 2016 16:16:17
Another average unproven player to go with the others and our average unproven manager. No wonder moxey wants out, its the solbaken era all over again.



02 Aug 2016 16:23:44
A Bola said today that we're just waiting for a work permit.



02 Aug 2016 16:26:28
Because you are ITK, if it was a no truth in the deal happening, the club would have come out and said it wasn't happening.



02 Aug 2016 16:37:38
You sure Lawsy? I heard he is waiting for the visa to pass before it can confirmed.?



02 Aug 2016 17:06:21
Its on twitter sayin he's waitin for a work permit.



02 Aug 2016 17:16:37
Talicsa deal will go ahead providing he can get his Work Permit.



02 Aug 2016 17:17:08
"O médio brasileiro Talisca ainda aguarda pela necessária autorização para jogar em Inglaterra e aceitar o convite do Wolverhampton, segundo refere A BOLA.

Apenas quando chegar a licença de trabalho concedida pela Federação inglesa (FA) é que Talisca poderá rumar a Inglaterra.

OR TRANSLATED - Reported in A-Bola in Portugal today

The Brazilian midfielder Talisca still waiting for authorization to play in England and to accept the invitation of Wolverhampton, according to the ball.

"Only when the work permit granted by the English Federation (FA) is that you can find Talisca England. "



02 Aug 2016 18:05:52
I would say tht it's over u don't wait tht long for a permit.



02 Aug 2016 20:52:46
It depends on the situation and he's just about to go in the Brazil Olympic team so I don't think he's that rushed.



02 Aug 2016 21:37:28
Yes you do for a non EU player it is now a very complicated process as the rules have changed recently as regards work permits.
This is suggest is a very valid reason for the hold up on Talisca.



02 Aug 2016 13:30:24
Wolves sign striker Jon Dadi Bodvarsson from Kaiserslautern.



02 Aug 2016 13:44:05
Finally someone who is not Portuguese
Let's learn the chant!



02 Aug 2016 13:45:29
Bjorn siguardson the 2nd.



02 Aug 2016 13:45:50
Prolific in his own country then no gud newere else.



02 Aug 2016 13:52:22
Wouldn't say that Rushton, 7 in 15 for Kaiserslauten.



02 Aug 2016 13:53:21
could be good with mason and the new wingers.



02 Aug 2016 13:56:40
Played and scored in the Euros
Sorry but sigardson was hopeless.



02 Aug 2016 13:58:12
Rustonwolf first thing tht came to mind.



02 Aug 2016 13:59:18
The Icelandic Peter Crouch!



02 Aug 2016 14:00:57
Looks like a good signing.



02 Aug 2016 14:22:47
He looked good at the Euros. Hopefully he'll hit the ground running. COYW.



02 Aug 2016 14:08:42
Negative posters out in force already!

This guy played well in the Euros 2016. More than can be said for Harry Kane, Raheem Sterling etc.



02 Aug 2016 14:11:09
Happy with that, 4 new signings now, hopefully more to come👍👍👍 Felixthecat where are the Sunderland and Stoke players u promised? Beginning to feel like a takeover now! New Owner New Coach and New players! 👍👍👍 Bring on the Championship 👊👊👊.



02 Aug 2016 14:11:55
Not exactly an exciting signing. bit of a leftfield signing if you ask me. Really hope we have got more in the pipeline and he's not going to be the only striker we bring in.



02 Aug 2016 14:12:41
Amazing no one mentioned this one!



02 Aug 2016 14:18:28
Was a handful for Cahill and Smalling, won everything in the air against those 2.



02 Aug 2016 14:18:35
He's a right winger.



02 Aug 2016 14:35:48
He prefers to play as a striker though.



02 Aug 2016 14:45:03
Can play wing or down the Centre. I think this is a good signing for the level we are at currently.
Saturday should be interesting!
One plea, could we ALL be patient, this is not evolution, but the desperately needed revolution. It will take time. be positive, we are finally walking out of the Scouse Scally's dark and gloomy world and towards the Light!



02 Aug 2016 15:01:02
Need a cb now maybe 2 and a lb and another cm and wouldn't mind seeing another striker out an out not one that can play on the wing aswell.



02 Aug 2016 15:03:11
Welcome Bodvarsson to Wolves

To make you feel at home.

. BOOM (clap) .



02 Aug 2016 15:05:18
Just a bit disappointed tbf that Newcastle are spending money on tried and tested quality players, and we have bought in 4 relatively unknowns. Don't think it's what we need at the minute, as for the big spending we have only spent 1m up to now and I have got a sneaky suspicion that we won't see anymore signings this week. I really hope these guys prove me wrong but there is so many targets that we could be looking at that are more accustomed to the championship.



02 Aug 2016 15:05:58
If anyone does the Iceland clap I will kill you.



02 Aug 2016 15:09:47
Agree Sidneyb. I would like 2 CB's and and maybe 2 more Strikers (ideally British! ) and a British "Beast" in centre midfield!



02 Aug 2016 15:17:11
Funny how all the ITK posters missed the Icelandic bloke. Maybe your hot sources are melted hot sauces in Iceland.



02 Aug 2016 15:27:16
A new quality centre half and a midfield powerhouse is an absolute must. We just missed out on Pritchard, but that is exactly the sort of player we need.



02 Aug 2016 15:29:39
BOOM (clap)



02 Aug 2016 15:40:16
Agree with Markster and Rugeley we have so far invested half the money we received from K Mac and recruited the Jorge Mendez unemployed, whilst Reading sign Alex Pritchard for 8m.
However there is still time to prove us wrong chaps maybe it's just the beginning.



02 Aug 2016 15:44:26
Let's hope he puts him on the right wing and displaces Henry forever.



02 Aug 2016 16:33:58
Yes that one was unexpected but a potentially exciting signing at Championship level. Let's get behind the club and our new manager. New era, exciting times and I can't wait to see what our new players can add to the mix.



02 Aug 2016 16:36:52
Markster. u still pining for Ronaldo? 😂.



02 Aug 2016 16:42:17
Pompeywolf . He scored 2 in 15 games for an easier league to play in . Another Siggy . Stats don't lie.



02 Aug 2016 16:50:57
Season Ticket bought today.

Ive seen enough this week to make me think were going in the right direction.

Paul Tamworth i'm sat near you in NU4.



02 Aug 2016 17:06:48
We did the boom thing at Saturday's game- presumably someone ITK started it - NOT.



02 Aug 2016 17:30:24
Sound Dot, good decision getting one, did u ask how many we've sold now.



02 Aug 2016 18:06:58
Henry might be crap Wavidsmith but he was amongst the best crap of last season. The icelander is more likely to play up front rather than down the wing in view of his height (6ft 3) I would think.



02 Aug 2016 19:05:55
Did in online Paul.

Guessing 14,000.



02 Aug 2016 20:51:11
Stop happy clapping Henry, unless you want mediocrity forever and a mid table finish. Anyway, i'm sure that the 'mad professor' (Zenger) will pick up on this without me saying anything. Hopefully it spells the end for Jackett's old favourites Batth, Savile, Edwards and Henry at last.



03 Aug 2016 07:38:45
I agree with you on Batth, Savile and Edwards and would certainly add Coady. My point was that there are more likely candidates for the chop than Henry who at least actually tries to do something positive.



02 Aug 2016 13:06:08
Wolves set to sign jon dadi bodvarsson?



02 Aug 2016 13:20:35
Just been confirmed.



02 Aug 2016 13:25:43
Signed him wolves confirmed it on Twitter.



02 Aug 2016 13:26:23
He has signed today on a 3 year contract👍⚽️.



02 Aug 2016 13:28:54
Yeah done deal for 1 mill from kaiserlaughten.



02 Aug 2016 13:29:36
Who?



02 Aug 2016 13:31:19
Signed up confirmed on wolves twitter video of him at compton.



02 Aug 2016 13:33:48
We've signed him.



02 Aug 2016 13:47:17
That's nice, but we could have gotten Pritchard today before Brighton got their mits on him. That's what we really needed.



02 Aug 2016 14:12:39
1mil where'd you get that from hendesford it says 2.7 mil.



02 Aug 2016 15:18:05
It was 2.7 million confirmed by QPR earlier as they were out offered.



02 Aug 2016 09:48:25
Hearing rumours of a press conference from Compton this morning. just circulating on Facebook. Anybody heard anything?



02 Aug 2016 10:18:50
If on fb then prob BS, not sure what a press conference would be for, new signings are not anounced at press conferences.



02 Aug 2016 10:23:32
Link?



02 Aug 2016 10:24:20
Is that to announce Talisca?



02 Aug 2016 10:51:16
Talisca is still awaiting visa approval .



02 Aug 2016 11:41:42
Talisca is just waiting on a work permit.



02 Aug 2016 11:50:31
So is the deal done did we increase to $1.5m p. a.



02 Aug 2016 11:53:38
Think about it last week wolves ban supports from compton.
Press conference rumour at compton.
It could be today. Tulisca the press circling around.



02 Aug 2016 11:54:40
fed up of all the unrealistic rumours, ed 001 you know anything we don't mate?



{Ed001's Note - not a thing mate, it is unlikely I will hear anything as it will come via Mendes. Having met him a few times, I can tell you he only reveals what he chooses to. So the only leaks are from the other end and I don't know anyone in Portugese football to get info from. It is something I really should work on, getting to know some people there, I guess.}

02 Aug 2016 12:10:54
How have you met Mendes? Was it pre-Wolves?



{Ed001's Note - yes a few times in Dubai. Yes before Wolves. Not since last summer have I seen him.}

02 Aug 2016 12:11:36
As stated before, press conferences aren't called for signings.



02 Aug 2016 12:28:35
Stop getting excited latest report is he is still waiting on work permit which can take a long time.



02 Aug 2016 12:32:09
Can we not announce the deal without a wirk permit?



02 Aug 2016 12:55:13
It's probably to announce the £1 million signing of Icelandic Bodvarsson, woopy doo.



02 Aug 2016 12:58:53
Do you think we can announce a £20m deal for a player with no work permit, Melbourne Wolf?



02 Aug 2016 13:03:23
Apparently we have lodged a bid for some Icelandic international who plays in Germany.



02 Aug 2016 08:56:34
Just heard a whisper but we are looking at another ex Benfica player on a season long loan. Lazar Markovic from Liverpool expect rumours to start to break over the next few days.



02 Aug 2016 09:51:36
Lol.



02 Aug 2016 10:14:09
Markovic is class.
Happy to see this.
Hope its true too.



02 Aug 2016 10:19:11
Maybe we should get the Eusebio statue from Benfica, stick a pair of spectacles on it and a Wolves blazer and say it’s the Jack Hayward statue.



02 Aug 2016 11:28:07
. don't get your hopes up. Remember Cavaleiro, Lemar, Silva, Vaart, John, etc etc etc yawn. It's all just to get you to buy a season ticket. None of them are going to come, unless they are from Benfica's B team. Good luck Walt, you're going to need it now.



02 Aug 2016 12:03:56
Wavid those players were all rumours on twitter we were not in for any of them bar cavaleiro and he is getting game time at monaco now. don't believe everything u read on twitter and rumour sites. This is not fifa or FM, this is real life, get a grip mate.



02 Aug 2016 12:52:00
Anything as got to be better than last season wavidsmith stop being negative and enjoy the ride.



02 Aug 2016 13:05:59
you know what I mean, guys.



02 Aug 2016 06:40:49
£6m deal alleged done for patrik Schlick at sampdoria not sure if fact or bs was on Twitter late last night all in Italian.



02 Aug 2016 06:55:24
No chance he's only just signed for sampdoria so that a load of tosh.



02 Aug 2016 08:19:16
Yeah doubt that only just signed for sampdoria.



02 Aug 2016 09:43:26
How about ross mcormack. proven scorer in this league. oh forgot he ain't portagese.



02 Aug 2016 04:27:29
Taliscas signed for wolves admitted by nathan judah on twitter.



02 Aug 2016 05:20:33
Sry wrong player.
