If you look at leo bonatini's twitter account or his dads is following miranda, neves etc.
Also still think were getting andre gray as well.



30 Jul 2017 16:52:56
Love to see gray down here but anybody that believes this is a sausage no way will he drop down to the championship.



30 Jul 2017 17:04:40
Buying Andre Gray as an already developed 26yr old with baggage for big money from the Prem doesn't make any sense, it would overwhelm and define Wolves brand as non glam and manufactured, as they try to reinvent and reestablish it.

While Afobe makes all the sense in the World.



30 Jul 2017 18:06:34
Leo banotini has agreed loan move for the season looks a class act happy days ahead.



30 Jul 2017 18:27:56
bonatini signing on loan having medical today express and star reporting.



30 Jul 2017 18:42:35
And Afobe doesn't have baggage Ulf? Finding it difficult to understand what you are saying.



30 Jul 2017 19:04:34
Looks like bonatini. has joined.1 more striker then were sorted. anyone of these would be superb. gray. gallacher. afobe. aboubakar. the promised land awaits. forever wolves.



30 Jul 2017 19:12:27
Afobe has no baggage. He was misled into staying over the summer with promises of Sako being replaced properly, on us maintaining our momentum and promotion push. Then we failed to replace Sako, just took a free loan off Morgans mates at Liverpool, then sold PotS Stearman. The club gave up, had betrayed his trust that had kept him over the summer, and were wasting a year of his career. These players live 24/ 7 for their careers, what they eat, drink, can do etc, it's not something anyone should be expected to have to tread water with to help Morgan and Moxey get away with their shortchanging.



30 Jul 2017 19:34:39
Bonatini got a good scoring rate only 23 on loan for season 1 more striker.



30 Jul 2017 20:10:52
Hate to break to everyone - gray is not joining us! I spoke to him this afternoon.



30 Jul 2017 20:21:03
Hate to break it to you all! Gray is not joining us, I spoke to him this afternoon.



30 Jul 2017 20:33:59
He probably can't tell u as he knows u can't keep it to yourself πŸ™‰πŸ™ˆπŸ™Š.



30 Jul 2017 20:41:35
It was the Β£20m price that shocked me. I'm sure he's worth it and would have almost guaranteed promotion, but then he is in the Prem from getting his team promoted and is a big name, he'd have overshadowed even Neves.



30 Jul 2017 20:44:25
You need to go back to the pub before you sober up.



30 Jul 2017 20:47:28
If u hated breaking that news why did u do it twice.



30 Jul 2017 20:58:04
Wolves247 u now as much as the nxt bloke.



30 Jul 2017 21:51:29
Moussa Marega is not joining us, I spoke to him this afternoon.



30 Jul 2017 21:52:28
I spoke to him πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚ was in Tesco. in Burnley?



{Ed047's Note - My friend who knows Gray personally has been told he's up for the move and is excited about the project at Wolves.}

30 Jul 2017 22:10:28
I'd say 1 more sriker, left wing back and a central midfielder as dangerous looks out of his depth.



{Ed047's Note - Dont want to many players otherwise it will take time to gel and with the money spent im sure the owners will be expecting promotion.}

30 Jul 2017 22:18:40
Agree Ed, one more striker of quality then we're ready to roll. Then take a look again in January when we're hopefully sittin pretty in the top 6.



{Ed047's Note - Too many players are no good as it can take time to gel especially the foreign lads, I hope my friend is right as i was talking about this on here recently and someone said it was 20/1 for him to join so i stuck a cheeky Β£5 on it happening lol, I stil think Wolves will make the play offs as Villa & Boro are my choice for automatic promotion based on there signings and mangers.}

30 Jul 2017 23:16:22
Sausages.



31 Jul 2017 00:39:57
Goals make sense not off field newd.



31 Jul 2017 00:52:00
Is Ulf Afobes agent?



31 Jul 2017 00:55:23
Andre Gray is now following Jordan Graham on Twitter. just saying.



31 Jul 2017 00:57:27
20 goals are great but ask Leeds fans. a solid back 4 gets you up.



31 Jul 2017 06:59:46
A 20 goal a season striker would have got us playoffs though.
Surely getting in Miranda and boly is a sign of strengthening defence. Plus getting a right back and pen back means he can alternate between playing 4 and 3 at the back. Plus he has hause and coady at his disposal. No news on Silvio.



31 Jul 2017 07:16:09
Silvio has left but we have Doc Batth Coady Hause Marshall Deslandes from last season plus Boly Miranda Ofosu-Ayeh Vinagre Bennett Douglas so defence is pretty good.



31 Jul 2017 07:24:26
Silvios contract was not renewed by both patries he's moved on. So have we.



31 Jul 2017 07:29:28
My thoughts exactly Rated RKO. I wouldn't want that overrated sulky brat down the Mol again except for the opposition. He's been found out at Bournemouth. That's why they've brought in a geriatric to do the job he was expected to do.



31 Jul 2017 09:04:09
Bath will go though. The rest of defence does look strong. Afobe is worth the risk as he can support dicko and gray. I reckon afobe will be in on loan. Gray will be the large purchase. Leaving bonatino as masons replacement.
The other players to leave or loan out will be mason, lonergan, Evans loan, Bath and bright on loan.
I still see a midfielder been brought in as neves needs someone to force themselves and win the ball back for neves.



31 Jul 2017 09:13:00
Odds on now for gray 11/ 8
Come on Jeff and george pull it over the line. Coyw.



31 Jul 2017 10:29:03
Afobe is the best option if we're going to spend big. While Andre Gray does have baggage. Even ignore the infamous tweets he only apologised for because he was called out over them, his main photo for his twitter account is his scar from his gang fighting. He’s not put it behind him, as his main photo he’s made it his brand. And the story is it happened because Wolves is a rough dump. If Fosun do it it’s going to define Wolves brand in a bad way.



30 Jul 2017 12:26:08
Heard yesterday that Noah Dicko may have broken his toe. Maybe just a rumour - I hope so. Also, that Villa have asked Wolves if they would be interested in a straight swap for Ross McCormack with Danny Batth going the other way. McCormack has had his problems, but an out and out goalscorer when handled correctly, and you can't see Batth shifting Conor Coady who really is looking a top class player these days. What would you think on this one?



30 Jul 2017 12:57:35
Keep Batth as he might not start every game but is a useful back up. No thanks to McCormack. He's caused issues everywhere he's been.



30 Jul 2017 14:20:44
No truth in anything above esp batth to villa even dr CIA said nothing in it as for rm no thanks he got real deep lying issues that being in football won't help resolve so not for me afraid.



30 Jul 2017 16:21:23
This is the worst rumour ever.
Dicko is injured but the club will react accordingly.
Mason wasn't in the squad either I would say that is a hint he is leaving. Linked to Bristol city and Fulham.
Bath won't be swapped for a trouble maker. He has a four year deal so he is worth 3-4 million with add ons. Plus Tony axis has said villa aren't interested they have 5 cbs! more likely Sheffield Wednesday or Celtic.
Fosun are not mugs they have stated they will make money out of our players as shown by the deal for bodvarsson, Saville and Wallace.
In terms of strikers I feel we have 15 players we have an eye on and 5 that we would seriously consider. But many more European based players on the radar.

1 gray
2 aboubaker
3 afobe
4 Gallagher
5 mitroglou.



30 Jul 2017 16:48:02
Apparently Aboukar did poorly in playing International in a tourno recently. And Gray has baggage that surely conflicts with Wolves glamorous inclusive brand, and at 26 too developed to be a prospect.

Afobe for me. If that's not possible or as well, Gallagher maybe, though Bonatini looks good, don't know how many they think they need.

Afobe is just a no brainer, he's right in almost every way, if he'd come he'd be worth us paying top money for.



30 Jul 2017 18:06:51
A player doing bad in a tournament is no way of judging a player. It was the confed cup with strong national squads in it. Germany, Spain, Portugal to name a few.

Gray does bring baggage and is similar to dicko.

Afobe is a strong shout and I would rather see 15-18m spent on him than gray.

It will be interesting can see us with 4 strikers before the end of the window. No chance of a repeat of last season.



30 Jul 2017 19:03:20
Yes it was in Confederations Cup, apparently Aboubakar missed endless chances, like against Australia. It was the missing chances thing that worried me, I think we'll create plenty and just need someone to put them away. This Leo bloke may be the answer.

Maybe the Andre Gray Mirror story was just to make news and drive betting, or maybe a West Ham fan trying to put them under pressure to buy quick. It has a spurious / almost malicious line in it claiming Mendes is in charge of our recruitment.

I won't be happy if West Ham buy Gray, and Burnley buy Afobe. This is still all M&M's fault.



30 Jul 2017 19:36:27
I don't care who we get if they score a hatful of goals in a (hopefully) successful season all this baggage talk etc won't matter!



30 Jul 2017 21:13:04
I guess the thing with Fosun is they spend so much money on quality it changes the parameters of baggage. Like the Moneyshop shirt doesn't make Neves (& so Wolves) look cheap, he makes them look like they're probably a posh foreign currency dealer. Who knows how much quality they may end up bringing in, that could define the clubs brand regardless.



30 Jul 2017 12:14:29
Has anyone when the very cryptic tweet on andre grey account? Makes you wonder.



30 Jul 2017 12:53:43
Jon Jones bones is a fighter.



30 Jul 2017 12:58:46
What's the tweet say?



30 Jul 2017 14:03:54
It's about UFC.



30 Jul 2017 14:27:29

Leo bonatini in Wolverhampton for talks.



30 Jul 2017 11:01:10
Just watched youtube of him, from what I've seen sign him up, looks good quality must admit never heard of him, but would recommend you all watch his youtube a big thumbs up from me 😁😁πŸ‘ͺπŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ™πŸ™.



30 Jul 2017 11:11:35
Insider LOL.



30 Jul 2017 11:12:10
A Brazilian playing in Saudi Arabia? I'll bet he can't wait for Barnsley away in Jan! Joking apart, I have complete trust in Nuno and his back room. Leo will probably be worth 20 mil this time next year.



30 Jul 2017 11:21:46
yes maty sign him up looks really good on youtube just watched looks like what we are after, good finisher on the balland very fast only 23 years old young and hungry.



30 Jul 2017 11:29:47
Impressive on you tube, however even Leon Clarke looks good if you see a montage of his best bits! If you wanted to be super critical you could argue that some of those goals would have been saved by Championship keepers but that's prob a bit unfair. Sign him up!



30 Jul 2017 11:35:35
Didn't George Weahs nephew get signed by Southampton based on a showreel? That went well didn't it. Might need some actual scouts to see him play first.



30 Jul 2017 12:49:19
he is two footed which will make a nice change and what I think is more important he does not keep drifting out to the wings like all our previous strikers when a cross comes over he is liable to be there to meet it.



30 Jul 2017 14:12:30
he was wanted by man city 5 years ago classed as a wonder kid.



30 Jul 2017 15:07:13
Presume a hopeful wolf has doctored Bontini's wiki page. Decent first touch and hits the ball early, but given a lot of room and feeding off errors.



30 Jul 2017 15:34:37
Can you alter "the final ball.com " too cause he is a wolves player on there?



30 Jul 2017 16:24:19
Anyone translate this think it's Portuguese. Bonatini to Wolves article.

goo.gl/iczvR



30 Jul 2017 16:43:31
It says he's signing on loan with a 5 mill option to buy. I've translated the page and tried to post screenshot on " sightings" page, if its worked! Looks like a done deal.



30 Jul 2017 18:34:12
I can't believe how slow express and star are to confirm things like this after seeing rumours 12 hours ago.



30 Jul 2017 19:11:22
Insider I how you an apology sorry mate you were spot on 😁.



30 Jul 2017 07:31:52
Haven't really posted a lot on here regarding transfers, however having met on holiday with a lad who knows a lot about wolves ins and outs, "apparently".
Please don't quote me on this, he's telling me "Andre silva" is the big name signing we are looking at, not happy at AC Milan having gone there from Porto, hasn't settled and also a client of mendes.
personally can't see this to be true but hey, who knows what fosun are thinking. so far, I'd rather be watching this than watching what I have in the past.
season ticket renewed me thinks.! πŸ‘πŸ».



30 Jul 2017 10:00:02
He only joined them June 12th this year, for €38m. This isn't even remotely a possibility!



30 Jul 2017 10:14:05
I went to the game yesterday and from what I see all we need is an experienced striker to get on the end of some crosses who can finish. I'd get crouch for what he would cost all day long even if he was an option of the bench.



30 Jul 2017 01:32:08
Gray at 20m must be a joke, a month ago I said Jota to join on loan, my contact was spot on. The other name mentioned was Soares, which at the time I thought was more hope than reality and a deal could be done around 18m. Aboubakar seemed the more realistic target for 12m

I believe there is a strong chance one of these will be signed in the next five days.



30 Jul 2017 11:11:01
Gray is in the last year of his contract Β£20m you must be joking Burnley would bite your hand off LOL.



30 Jul 2017 16:12:20
Stands a bloody chance. a grey is no joke. good player. doesn't get bullied off the ball.
