Wolves pull off stunning coup to land 17-year-old wonderkid
Wolves have moved swiftly to capture the signing of 17-year-old right-back Pedro Lima from Sport Recife for around £8.4m.
The Brazilian had been strongly linked with Chelsea, but contrary to previous reports, the player's preference was always Molineux.
Lima is expected to sign a five-year deal with a club option of a further year
1.) 17 Jun 2024 18:21:37
Well done Hobbs.
2.) 17 Jun 2024 18:38:38
Wow. I haven't seen him play but Tim Vickery rates him and he isn't usually wrong about South American players.
3.) 17 Jun 2024 19:11:12
Docs position may be under threat now.
4.) 17 Jun 2024 19:14:38
Wolves scouts have been sniffing around South America for a few years, and it is paying off. To beat Chelsea to the Pedro Lima signing it a real coup and shows strategic planning for the near future. It also helps that we have several Portuguese-speaking players already.
5.) 17 Jun 2024 20:09:55
Interesting signing with the increasing Brazilian and established Portugese presence hopefully the club will become a preferred destination for talented youngsters from Brazil.
6.) 18 Jun 2024 10:43:18
I know highlight reels on You Tube can be misleading but, given his age, this looks like a really exciting signing . even more so if Chelsea were remotely interested. The boy looks to be a genuine prospect, a terrific athlete and an instinctive footballer. I just pray it's not another Fabio false dawn. Well done to everyone connected with bringing this signing to fruition.
7.) 20 Jun 2024 15:59:53
Makes me laugh how the press are pushing for Cunha to go to Man Utd yet they all reported how he helped to bring in the full back from his home town. Then has said he will take care of him and settle him in a wolves!
11 Jun 2024 07:33:05
Sporting Lisbon are interested in Wolves winger Chiquinho, 24, and would be prepared to pay a fee of around 10m euros (£8.45m) for the Portuguese player.
31 May 2024 18:20:39
E&S have linked Wolves with soon to be free agent Ryan Sessegnon.
1.) 01 Jun 2024 12:09:26
Hope this is true always rated him on a free aswell no brainer for me.
30 May 2024 22:40:58
E&S are reporting that Man City are willing to listen to offers for Matheus Nunes, with Wolves set to get 10% of any profits. PSG, Barca, a d Saudi clubs are believed to be interested.
1.) 30 May 2024 23:40:37
Who would buy him for more than 53 million?
2.) 31 May 2024 08:19:46
Any one of the Saudi clubs that would like a "marquee" signing.
I personally doubt 'Barca will buy him, they're cash strapped.
3.) 01 Jun 2024 14:47:19
Nunes a marquee signing for a Saudi club? They might be better off buying a tent.
4.) 01 Jun 2024 17:33:00
Nice one Deep.

Wolves are considering Arsenal's 25-year-old England goalkeeper Aaron Ramsdale, Liverpool's 25-year-old Republic of Ireland goalkeeper Caoimhin Kelleher, and Sunderland's 23-year-old English goalkeeper Anthony Patterson as replacements if Portugal goalkeeper Jose Sa, 31, leaves the club this summer.
This is from The Sun, so take it with a handful of salt.
But as a talking point, would you like to see a new keeper?
1.) 22 Apr 2024 10:17:20
Ramsdale to Wolves is a joke after his antics towards our fans last season
2.) 22 Apr 2024 11:27:05
I think we are in the market for a new keeper, several names linked with Wolves.
3.) 22 Apr 2024 14:05:11
We were linked with Rome-Jayden Owusu-Oduro. 19 year old from AZ Alkmaar

Apparently Mason Greenwood is off to Marseilles, I wonder will this cool interest in Hwang?
1.) 17 Jul 2024 07:24:56
If Eddie Howe does not go for the England job.
Looks like they will try for potter
Or O'Neil ??
2.) 17 Jul 2024 09:08:07
Really. I like GON, but for the England Managers job and this early in his career?
Can't see it myself. We finished 14th. I don't consider that brilliant and if we'd had the same form all season as we had in the last 13/14 games we would have been relegated and I still have nightmares about the Coventry game. Credit where it's due though he did take over after a 'fire sale' united the team and suffered horrendous injury problems towards the back end of the season.
I think he needs at least one or two seasons with his 'own' team before he can be judged.
3.) 17 Jul 2024 10:16:07
Hwang wasn’t going. Wolves had set an asking price way too high because they don’t want him to leave. The same papers people were quoting the other day now say nobody knows what he wants but that the club don’t want to let him go.
15 Jun 2024 09:23:50
Former Wolves keeper Matija Sarkic has sadly passed away (26). Truly awful news, RIP Matija, thoughts go out to his family and friends.
1.) 15 Jun 2024 09:53:32
Well said Ford.
2.) 15 Jun 2024 09:59:48
That's terrible news
Thoughts and prayers to his family and friends
3.) 15 Jun 2024 10:07:39
I had forgotten that he was on our books until fairly recently, how sad and so young.
4.) 15 Jun 2024 10:19:32
As above thoughts and prayers to his family and friends. Devastating.
5.) 15 Jun 2024 20:41:35
Dreadful news, thinking of his family and loved ones.
06 Jun 2024 16:34:54
Fabio Silva has expressed his desire to leave Wolves "It's no secret that I don't want to stay at Wolverhampton, " said Silva, in an interview with Spanish news outlet Relevo. "We both agree, now we have to try to find the best situation for both of us to be happy."
1.) 06 Jun 2024 18:27:52
I think as he says it is a mutual thing, better to just let him go, in lesser leagues he might shine, but not in Premier, I like him, but he appears a little slow
2.) 06 Jun 2024 19:42:41
Too slow, no physical attributes, and doesn't appear to have an eye for goal despite being a striker. In short the sooner he goes the better. Obviously we'll lose money, but let's get him off the wages bill.
3.) 06 Jun 2024 21:18:52
Fabio says he wished he'd never come to Wolves, that makes 30, 001 of us, pal! FWAW.
4.) 07 Jun 2024 01:57:12
Can't wait until he goes he couldn't even hack it in the SPL, he has stolen a living.
5.) 07 Jun 2024 07:25:32
Prestonwolf I don't think Fabio's comment was meant in a spiteful way, it's clear for all to see the move didn't work out for both parties, I assume that's what his comment was based on.
If the move had of worked out and he was getting us 15+ goals a season he'd have a completely different take on it.
Bottom line is: beware Jorge Mendes. It seems a lot of his players go for big money and the deals don't work out.
6.) 07 Jun 2024 09:59:24
Found this headline this morning from some rubbish site called Sports View: Hammer blow for Gary O’Neill with £35m star keen to leave Wolves. Hammer blow? Star? ??
7.) 07 Jun 2024 13:15:28
Yes I saw that.it made my day
8.) 07 Jun 2024 18:06:12
Until Jorge Mendes undergoes horrific torture no one will ever know the deep secrets of the Fabio transfer.
Had we paid 10 million my opinion wouldn’t change.
He’s a non league footballer this will be a Netflix series in the future of how a a football agent turned a postman into a premier league footballer
Yow ain’t sin me rite
The postman who never delivered a Netflix exclusive.
9.) 08 Jun 2024 07:46:48
Looks like forest are goi g to beat us to signing adams.im not personally bothered because not sure of him.but it doesn't bode well missing out on a target like that to a club like forest!

RE: Wolves season TIcket Price increase
Rishi Sunak has waded in on the topic, he has said "The issue highlights the need for an independent football regulator"
Thanks, Rishi!
1.) 27 May 2024 09:44:18
Haha, standard Sunak! If only his party had been in power for long enough to introduce an independent regulator eh! I mean they've only had 14 years but I'm sure now they want votes then it's right on top of their to do list, it's shameless how stupid they think we are ?
2.) 27 May 2024 10:15:12
Arsenal cheapest adult ticket is now £1073 and between 5-10 years waiting list.
Premier League is an in demand product with willing customers queuing up to take our place.
3.) 27 May 2024 10:45:16
You need to watch the Judah video E cause it points out the MANY reasons mentioning waiting lists is absolute fallacy! How it's the lost generations of local fans that a club like Wolves can't afford long term! It also points out how quickly those lists can disappear when times are hard, who do you think are more likely to get relegated us or Arsenal?!
I do find it hilarious E, it's almost like you just enjoy being on the other side of the debate?! I've seen nothing but bile from you aimed at Fosun for years, but now you suddenly fully back all their actions? OK then fella, I guess wums just like wuming eh?! ?
4.) 27 May 2024 10:55:20
Wages down London are also a lot more than around Wolvo. You can’t compare the two
5.) 27 May 2024 11:19:32
OK to have opinions and understand fans frustrations with seasonticket hike and all fans frustration with fosun/shi.
That's there perogative.
But when it's becoming OTT I don't like that especially when frustration is taken out aimed at others.
It becomes one side agaisnt another.
There great folk on here.
It's polite and proper to respect each other no matter how difference of opinion there is.
Next season for me personally expectations are higher than last season
That's a worry a concern of failure but that's the thrill of being a fan of any sport.
We go Pete tongue I will post humble hands in the air to the non believers you were right you were right.
Happy bonk holiday Monday.
6.) 27 May 2024 11:51:37
Did you mean BONK Phil mate, or is that a typo? ??
7.) 27 May 2024 12:46:23
Lol you caught me out mate.
Dreaming middle aged dirty old git I am ha ha.
8.) 27 May 2024 13:19:52
The mol is obviously very special, but facilities don't come anywhere near arsenal's . Wages higher easier to access and European football. Higher running cost and staffing too E. You can't compare to us on a like for like basis but Shi wants too. The demographics just don't fit.
9.) 27 May 2024 13:21:01
One track mind Phil mate. ??
10.) 27 May 2024 13:56:17
Bully’s Boy 111 Where in my post does it say that I back Fosun and support the season ticket prices of which mine has seen a sharp rise?
I’m saying that there are customers who are willing to pay these prices for a product that is in demand.
Jeff Shi says if we want trophies or Europe then Wolves shouldn’t be the club of our choice but we didn’t choose we were chosen.
If you could just choose a team I guess my choice would be Real Madrid as they seem to have a few decent players a nice stadium and a chance of trophies and European football.
Yes customers on our waiting list may not take up the option and if they do they will find the reality is not as glamorous as portrayed but Arsenal and other clubs customers are willing and able to buy at any price.
Jeff seems to think that our loyalty outweighs his price increase.
11.) 27 May 2024 14:03:43
What was a bonk? I can't remember.
12.) 27 May 2024 16:18:01
Your as bad as the press E, that’s not what Jeff said and if you think it is why not mention the next line where he says if you just want to support your local team maybe wolves isn’t right for you either. He was trying to make the point that it’s not as easy as just spending millions to get in to Europe. He wants us to be sustainable which I view as a good thing. Competing with the top teams won’t happen over night we need to build revenue which isn’t easy. Clearly you’ve missed the point of his letter, guess that’s what he gets for communicating with fans.
13.) 27 May 2024 17:06:19
E your opinion thoughts are credible and humble whether correct or not.
But Ott imo your posts towards Jas.
14.) 27 May 2024 17:18:32
Well Goatmark that doesn’t make any sense at all.
If you just want to support your local team Wolves isn’t for you?
Think Jeff has got his words lost in translation somehow.
One poster has told me to watch Nathan Judahs video complaining about the rising cost of tickets and another poster says I am as bad as the press for posting what Jeff has wrote to STH.
Jeff has told us we are not able to compete but the prices are going up and we must renew before transfer window opens.
It’s Jeff and co causing division between fans (sorry.customers as we now are).
You seem to have misread the mood of the situation entirely Goatmark.
15.) 27 May 2024 17:50:05
Also I read that a lot of clubs want to get rid of season tickets, they would make more money from selling individual tickets. Makes sense from a business point of view but obviously it’s a shame for the diehard fans who want to go every week and have their spot guaranteed. I also understand increasing the youth tickets as adult tickets again make more money for them. Sign of the times I guess.
16.) 27 May 2024 18:01:19
We’re all Wolves Phil but signing two full backs from West Ham when they have shown no interest in moving to Wolverhampton and selling Kilman who has been an ever present in a half decent defence is not going to appease!
17.) 27 May 2024 19:26:24
If we sign Che Adams and he's a flop I'll look a right plonka.
But as you say E we are all wolves so Jas with west ham fullbacks and kilman he's brave enough to comment his signings thoughts no problem there I see.
Have you got any signings for us in mind that are available and strengthen us for next season.
That's what I see in Adams and what Jas must see in his signings and kilmsn thoughts.
18.) 27 May 2024 19:32:30
It's the differing of opinions that make a good banter page E. I personally wouldn't have minded the kilman, 20m plus two defenders, particularly coufal, deal which I think Jas originally suggested with a hint of sarcasm. But none of us are managers are we?
Kilman as been an ever present because of necessity and whilst I'm not having a go, he was never captain material and without Dawson looked lost at times. Who knows what may happen this summer but I'd rather a deal like that if we hang onto neto bolster defence and have abit of cash to get the front line going.
19.) 27 May 2024 19:40:20
Abbey. It's where you deposit money
20.) 27 May 2024 20:43:57
Phil Che Adam’s averages roughly 1 goal in four games but the other teams in prem are stronger than last time he was there so his average will probably be more like 1 in six now so around 6 or 7 goals over the season if he decides to leave Saints.
It’s pointless speculating on who we will sign as we don’t have a clue how much we have to spend until we sell.
Think Sa will go to Saudi as it’s easy money in easy league.
Boubacar is not a top Prem midfielder.
We can’t really get much more out of Doc.
Dawson can’t play every game.
See if Mosquera wants to be here.
Think GON will keep us up next season but the owners let him down this season by not buying in January which could have got us top half and Wembley.
21.) 27 May 2024 21:03:09
Do you mean with regards Fosun asset stripping or have I missed something else E. Not sure what you mean?
22.) 28 May 2024 06:30:13
We beat Chelsea on Xmas eve Abbey and were going well.GON told the CEO/owners that he had a small squad that needed reinforcements for the run in and they did nothing to help.We suffered injuries and got knocked out of the cup by championship side Coventry and after that won only one game against the now championship Luton Town.
We had academy players few had heard of making their debuts in the toughest league in the world.
Is that letting your manager down or fully supporting him?
23.) 28 May 2024 07:11:12
IMO,
All signings are a gamble whether they have top stats or not.
For a free transfer and his work rate che Adams is worth an option of consideration.
We need forward players.
Also under GON there's a possibility that he could improve and have good/better stats for us.
Being one that hasn't got a season ticket I'm trying my best to be sympathetic towards those who have.
If I'm too much then just say I'll do what ever it is I can.
FWAW
24.) 28 May 2024 07:20:49
This is what Jeff said….
Fans also play an important role. If you only pursue trophies or consistent European football, Wolves might not be an ideal choice.
Not what you said at all E, consistent European football is a bit different to just European football. His point is we can’t compete at getting consistent European football at the moment.
He then said….
If you only love your local team and don’t mind their sporting achievements, Wolves may not be one either.
To me this implies that if you don’t care about trophies and Europe then wolves isn't right for you either as we have ambitions to get there eventually. Through steady growth as he said in the letter
My point about the press is they manipulate everything to sound how they want, much like you missing out the odd word that changes the meaning of the sentence. I guess if your looking for the negative then that’s what you see. Much like talking wolves has done with the whole is wolves for sale click bait.
Jeff says…
Our universe is a bit more complicated, each owner’s pocket is limited, and in this case, if a club can’t find a way to be self-sufficient sooner or later, then the day its owner stops funding is literally the day it starts to prepare for administration or to be sold.
This doesn’t mean we are looking to be sold he is simply saying if a club isn’t self sufficient the day any owner stops investing the club is in trouble. He clearly points out he wants wolves to be self sufficient so this isn’t a worry. He’s not saying fosun don’t want to invest and he clearly says owners can’t invest what they want due to ffp etc.
That’s the way I read it, of course I could be wrong and misreading the mood completely but until he comes out and says wolves are for sale, we don’t want to grow the clubs revenue etc etc I’ll keep believing he has the clubs best interest at heart. Because to me speculation is a waste of energy and negativity rots you from the inside. But that is just my view.
25.) 28 May 2024 09:51:29
Very true goatmark, but A. What club is wholly self sufficient? B.does any club run without ambition and C. When you are a wolves supporter born out of love, being told that, and at the same time being asked/mugged, (for you'll always try and see games and they know it) to pay above reasonable rates which you may not be able to afford.
I'm sure it all settles genuine fans will adjust budgets and renew, but some will not be able to.
Shi talks the business room sadly not the terrace.
26.) 28 May 2024 09:58:16
E, Surely a deal such a jas intimated at would be in keeping with what you suggest, bolstering the squad and adding to it using kilman as currency?
Re cov game I think GON may have been semi responsible for tactics, that's not taking anything from the sky blues, but I take your point regarding squad size and injuries at that time. I believe the Che Adams thing was on and we were left fuming when it didn't happen and had no plan B for last minute.
27.) 28 May 2024 15:04:21
Guess you didn’t get the memo about us being at risk of ffp rules E, hence why we couldn’t sign anyone in January. I don’t get how some people think it’s still as easy as the club putting their hands in their pocket. We spent to much the January before to keep us in the prem that’s why GoN didn’t get funds last January. To blame Jeff for not backing his manager is simply wrong.
28.) 28 May 2024 17:06:45
I didn't say Shi hasn't back GON goatmark, I've been appreciative of Fosun and Shi, until now! He's talking of our loved club as his business, understandably, but he's not talking the clubs breathe, bread and butter, whatever you want to call the true fans who'll be here long after fosun have gone. Price out the younguns now and he's wiping a generation of future wolves fans away.
29.) 28 May 2024 19:53:33
Sorry abbey my last post wasn’t aimed at you, it was E who said gon wasn’t backed. Was just trying to explain why I think that didn’t happen.
I get what your saying about the next generation though abbey but I think they will still follow wolves if they grow up in the area and or parents follow wolves. I was lucky if my old man took me to 1 game a season when I was young and I still follow wolves.
30.) 29 May 2024 06:06:29
Yeh fair point goatmark, me being in oxford makes me see things abit different and also me age and me finances. Sorry I thought you were referencing me, it was the order of the posts.
25 May 2024 05:48:55
One thing I've noticed last season is how much of a bad state the once yellow paint work is on the exposed structural steel members at the Molineux, also the canopy leading into the club could do with a touch up, as well as the condition of The Directors Car Park - these are things any visiting fans and passers by can clearly see and I don't think gives a great impression.
1.) 25 May 2024 08:26:00
Wouldn't have happened if we still had manders sponsoring us FJ. Lol.

What makes it more interesting is Rodrigo Gomes can play LWB or RWB.

26 Jul 2024 15:04:51
Fosun doing the bare minimum again, they easily could've bought a new Captain with the Kilman money.
26 Jul 2024 11:22:48
123 northst."so bear minimum being done again" - stop me if I'm wrong, but haven't Wolves signed three players already? Some PL clubs haven't made any signings as of yet.
24 Jul 2024 17:53:44
Halfpenny Green is not an international airport though.
24 Jul 2024 06:59:44
And a hotel. An international airport, would that be too much to ask?
