I've heard a rumour in house that we are up for sale. Any truth in this?

Ragingbull

1.) 20 Aug 2023 08:36:08
If we are, Mr Guanchang will not be getting a decent price!
After just 2 games, next weekend is a HUGE game. The very least we need is a point from our visit to Everton.
I am ever optimistic, our majority shareholder, MrGuangchang was over for the game. I really, really, hope he is here to change the Leadership of the Club.
Under Dalrymple, 3 memorable seasons, under Shi's direct control all of that wasted. Complete financial mismanagement which has created the FFP situation, 6 poor transfer windows under Shi and a failure to generate decent commercial income to offset the misspending on "big-ticket" players who haven't delivered.
That is ours and Mr G's issue Ragingbull, awful Club management!


2.) 20 Aug 2023 10:49:30
There maybe some truth that we are up for Sale, That's probably what we needs to happen, Fosun have took us far had they can no more investment but I wudnt be surprised if a few more go.


3.) 20 Aug 2023 11:14:06
RagingBull I heard this from Asda delivery driver on 11/08/23 and posted the same.You replied pmsl.
Was told it’s Americans and will be in three weeks which just happens to be when the transfer window closes and the owners have sold who they can sell to recover losses.


4.) 20 Aug 2023 11:56:22
If it is a sale the timing seems strange. Fosun is a global investment company and would have been more likely to sell when Wolves were a more attractive prospect. At present they are a club hindered by FFP, which will be the same for a new owner, and a possible scenario of championship football on the horizon. It is possible Fosun are under pressure to raise cash, but what they would get for Wolves is small beer.


5.) 20 Aug 2023 12:16:08
Let's wait and see, but looking at the history of US owners of English clubs, I wouldn't expect significant investment to suddenly become available.


6.) 20 Aug 2023 13:43:12
I've not heard much of the sale since, think it's all twoddle tbh.


7.) 20 Aug 2023 13:58:22
I would say it's more to do with the Chinese government instructing China based businesses to invest more into China as their economy is struggling and do not want companies to invest overseas. There is no other reason as to why Fosun would all of a sudden want to make Wolves less valuable by getting relegated (FFP is there but it's being a smokescreen also, as people in the Football Financial circles have said that the Nevis sale covered that issue). Their idea is get the funds in know then sell on maybe for a reduced value knowing that nearly £100 million has been already banked.


8.) 20 Aug 2023 14:41:14
The way the chairman was dressed - he ain't selling.


9.) 20 Aug 2023 15:32:32
Chairman was dressed as an American would dress.
Doubt if he wears those clothes on a daily basis.


10.) 20 Aug 2023 22:21:53
I'm out in Tunisia at the moment which is a majority Arabic country. Rumour over here is that if the Qatari bid fails for Man Utd, he will turn his attention to another PL club, possibly Wolves.


11.) 21 Aug 2023 12:28:49
Jas, interesting. You're one of the sensible, reliable fans on this site, so I'll take your rumour seriously. I think our owner may have realised the scale of the task at Wolves to deliver on the original project's timescale. That said, every PL club is potentially for sale anyway. So, who knows. The tide has completely turned from the Chinese ownership model in favour of the-oil rich Arabian states. The only other viable ownership model is the USA.


12.) 21 Aug 2023 13:42:56
Google English football club ownership and lòk at yhe Wikipedia entry, significant US ownership exists in the top 2 divisions.


13.) 21 Aug 2023 13:44:50
Correction Jas, I meant that almost every PL club is potentially for sale. Have to ignore the sovereign-wealth ownership clubs. Looks like a Sheikh or a Yank is our only hope for a change of ownership at Wolves!


14.) 21 Aug 2023 14:45:03
If we had taken our chances and won at utd drawn or beat Brighton by again taking our chances would this feed be like it is?

Believe in Raging that he posting rumour he heard that's genuine.

Football results are everything to fans.


15.) 21 Aug 2023 15:33:15
I did think it was interesting that the boss was at the game, pictured alongside Guanchang and Shi.


16.) 22 Aug 2023 20:38:39
Shi is owner of Poundland rumours spreading were on verge of clinching a striker from poundland.deal is over 7 years .50% off food wow £7 for a striker.

Jimenez to Fulham.
Lemina to Liverpool.
Could be an exciting few weeks of incomings .

Ragingbull

1.) 23 Jul 2023 16:33:56
Lemina to Liverpool, don't talk dribble please


2.) 23 Jul 2023 16:46:35
Our war-chest is filling up nicely. I'm expecting three or four quality signings over the next couple of weeks or so.


3.) 23 Jul 2023 17:40:57
Lemina to Liverpool has already been debunked as a rumour from a troll twitter account.


4.) 23 Jul 2023 17:55:13
Jimenez transfer is a good deal for Wolves.


5.) 23 Jul 2023 18:12:21
I wouldn't be surprised if there were to be a problem with his medical .


6.) 23 Jul 2023 18:51:29
I would be surprised lost, considering he played in the final game of the season. What do you know that the player and club don't?! ?


7.) 23 Jul 2023 20:35:48
BullysBoy He had an operation in the summer on what I believe was a groin injury, therefore has been training away from the rest of the squad as he buils up his fitness. So could very well have issues passing a medical


8.) 23 Jul 2023 21:37:36
Wolves wouldn't waste time if they thought there was a risk with an injury.
I'd imagine the groin issue is a slight problem and something the medical at Fulham can sort.
He actually looks in really good shame but we can't risk another season of 5 goals or less from him.
I wish him and his family all the best.


9.) 23 Jul 2023 21:38:56
BB, since his injury, he is reluctant to head the ball. Not ideal for a striker. He obviously has a major problem, that's why we are selling him.


10.) 23 Jul 2023 22:03:55
I get that Lost but pretty sure Fulham will be aware as it was one of the most well publicised injuries in the last few years! If there's a problem there's a problem but like Mad says if they were conocered I suspect they have done it behind closed doors! As for the move all Fulham need is cover for Mitrovic which they will then sell for silly money.


11.) 24 Jul 2023 07:27:14
Jimenez has been a great player for us BB, I sincerely wish him well for the future and hope that his move to Fulham is a success.


12.) 24 Jul 2023 10:53:03
Hear hear to that lostcity. As we know our exs' always seem to score against us. I don't expect any celebration if he does.

Boubakar Traore in. Great addition. Just need to finish our efforts in front of goal and it could be a successful season.

Morning all. I'm trying my best to not be led my the media coverage but I can't help but feel disappointed with the potential hijacking of our transfer targets from last season. Newly promoted teams as well. The mind boggles. Money truly dictates the mind of these prima donas.
Jeff please surprise us all so we can relax.

Ragingbull

The next statement from the club will say something like ‘We were open to signing players and money was ready but no one was available who was better than we already have at the club.’

13 Jul 2021 22:02:47
If the rumours are true, why are we signing a right back from Hungary. Havent we got enough?

Ragingbull

1.) 13 Jul 2021 22:06:32
He's going straight out on loan for the season.


2.) 13 Jul 2021 22:19:42
Ragingbull

It's a done deal, going straight to grasshoppers on loan. Transfer fee is currently unknown, and it could be just a financial move. These type of signings need to happen to increase first team money. This RB could either blow up and teams require of his services, or could be added to the wolves in the future.


3.) 14 Jul 2021 13:22:42
Do fans not understand how the club works?
Imagine you are an owner of a football club you are a billionaire and you have plans to make your investment successful.
The club has achieved highest positions in over 40 years 3 years in a row.
Would you buy 4 experienced players on over 100k a week for 50m each and risk upsetting the team culture? Do all players want to come to Wolves?
The answer is some may but there character as a mercenary is bad for the club and team.
Then we have the 'experienced'player every Wolves fan wants at the moment. Its simple who? Who is good enough? Lingard played well for 10 games then dropped off. Zinchenko didn't want to come.
Going bavk to the hungarian rb. This is a series of signings that are designed to overlap between academy and first team. They give the young player a chance to start there career at a big premiership club. But in the case of Vitinha, Silva, Dhabani, Jordao and Neto they are designed to bring a set of strong technically able players to the club to minimise the gap between u18, u21 and u23 (reserve football) . Players like Kilman, Otawosie, Morgan gibbs white, Giles, Sanderson, Burr and Marques have benefitted from this system as it has raosed standards throughout the club.


4.) 14 Jul 2021 14:14:03
Madman it is all about balance.
In a previous note you talked about investment for the future as independent of investment for the present.
However there is no seperate pot of gold to do this.
If you spend on the future it is at the cost of investment for the present.
Whilst I totally understand what you are saying about finding the right player and a player who will come ( we have made it harder for ourselves by going backwards so sharply last year and not just not being able to offer European football this year but even in all reality the prospect of it in the near term ) but it doesn't mean you give up on the concept. Clearly you can't buy prima donnas or players who will upset the squad morale - Silva is a real risk there as he is one of the very highest paid but clearly not even close to justifying it - but players who fit both the culture and the teams requirements.
If we don't buy for the present (and v soon) we will get relegated sooner or later costing 100's of millions and no amount of clever youth development will compensate for that - plus no really talented kid will come to a championship side that isn't looking like it has a plan for the future.
Most billionaires will get this and will understand the need for balance
Indeed until last summer we had done this extremely well buying youngsters like Neto and Neves alongside experienced player like Boly and Moutinho.
However due to the passage of time (old age) and injurys the balance after a year of misjudged inactivity is now dangerously close to wrong and we need to redress this during the current window.
Nothing wrong with sensibly structured buys for the future (and a career path as you decribe) as long as it is balanced by buys for the current so that we have a premier league future.
Jeff got it badly wrong last summer let's not make the same mistakes again.


5.) 14 Jul 2021 14:38:43
TFIOG, you keep mentioning Fabio Silva and how wrong Wolves have got it by signing him. Whilst I agree that he isn't the finished article, you lambast him as he's 'one of the highest earning'. How do you know this? The internet should not always be trusted, especially when different 'trusted' sites have varying amounts from £15k to £80k.


6.) 14 Jul 2021 15:42:23
We paid £35m for him - over 25% of our annual turnover, yet even his biggest fans acknowledge he wasn't ready last year and many acknowledge he won't be ready this year either. Consequently what he is paid is almost irrelevant as for Wolves that alone it is a bad deal full stop.
We simply can't afford to carry players who don't contribute for that sort of money as we discovered last year when we didn't have a deep enough squad of ready to play Prem quality players once the injury's kicked in.
If Madman was right when his post intimated that this money came out of some sort of different pot it would be fine but it doesn't it came out of the pot from which we should have bought ready to play players but couldn't because it was empty and seemingly (if you believe all the noise) still isn't flush.
However re his wages whilst I agree the internet is not a reliable source of data and I haven't seen his pay packet do you think Wolves pay £35m for a player and put him on youth team wages?
He has been bought, in Wolves terms, as a super star, or for, in Wolves terms, super star money at least. It is therefore reasonable to assume is it not that the internet, where yes some sites have him lower paid, is probably correct when, as most sites do, it states he is one of our highest paid players. With Patrico leaving he may in fact be number 3 behind Moutinho and Semedo or possibly 4 behind Jimenez as well - whose wage is also quoted wildly differently on ifferent sites.
ps we haven't go it wrong signing him - he may turn out to be a great player as he has got that magic ability to be in the right place at the right time, - but we did structure the transfer v badly. A lesson we seem to have learnt with the RAN deal being more rational and the Sa/ Patricio deal being on the face it a good one.
Pps I have seen sites quoting 90k pw so you are correct the internet is not reliable.


7.) 14 Jul 2021 15:52:55
Could well be a good move. Tote Gomes the guy we signed from Estoril last year helped Grasshoppers to promotion last season to the Premier. Looks decent and will spend another year there. We will make a profit when or if we sell. Impressed in games I've watched.


8.) 14 Jul 2021 16:21:29
Fabio Silva was a gamble, wolves paid £35m for him and I would still consider that a bargain. Had the kid never left Porto and would had an impressive year there, he would be worth more double the fee. The kid is talented and we just have to give him time. Playing under Bruno Lage will help him improve!


9.) 14 Jul 2021 16:34:34
The future is old gold.
I'll give you a few players I'd look at with experience.
Defence:Dunk, Tarkowski, Ben White, Zouma, Laporte (i know out there but he is supposed to be available) .
Midfield:Palhinha, Gedson Fernandes, flortino Luis, Ryan Gauld, ask for Renato Sanchez (again if a deal is possible) and Goncalves (depending on our deal with familcao and then sporting) Vitinha (if Neves Leaves)
Forwards: Guedes (if Traore goes), Carlos Vinicius and Leao. i'd also look at Seferovic from Benfica.
Not sure how that all adds up with home grown players etc etc.

My annoyance is fans that want experience and can't say who they want. Its to simple to say there's a problem but not give a solution.
Then blame young talent on the issues.

Note I also agree that the club are looking at strengthening Lwb with Robinson from Fulham.

The future is old gold your view on Fabio Silva is like investing in stocks in a new company and expecting returns with 12 months during a depression. Give the lad time and get behind them!


10.) 14 Jul 2021 16:35:13
TFIOG, where can I get my hands on a copy of the Wolves finances. You say over 25% of our turnover was spent on Silva so just confirm what our turnover is.

I'm no financial guru but even I know that we have other streams of income other than the TV money. Also, are you aware that not many transfer fees are paid up in full. They're usually staggered over a period of at least 2 summers. Hence why we only had £4.5m paid up front for Jota last season.


11.) 14 Jul 2021 17:06:29
How I go about my thinking is our club try everything in their power to get the right players they think (through a huge up to date state of the art process) will improve us.
Last summer we may of well had players coming in but didn't materialize through no fault of our club.
It been said since promotion the area of players we are looking for is a very narrow and small area.
I think the club has been looking for a quality c/ b for the the last 2 or 3 transfer windows this to me shows how difficult it is to bring in players.
Re Silva it may be a bad buy to certain fans but I imagine an excellent well thought out smart buy by fosun.
I don't know and I respect every fans opinion but since fosun all the players who we have seen playing for wolves has been something I have never witnessed so I trust fosun as I don't know or understand how it is behind the scenes for our 10 year plan.
I think the club is always looking for quality first team players and I personally think we need 1 or 2 but if we don't I will still have faith in the club that they are doing their upmost to make us better.
I think quality players available are all on the clubs list of targets.
I hope quality players will want to join us and our project.
We wait and see in eager inticiptation.


12.) 14 Jul 2021 17:23:06
Jas just google Wolverhampton Wanderers football club beta and you’ll get some Companies House options and be able to view the most recent filed accounts (I think the turnover was £132m in the last filed accounts) .
No great issue on the Jota deal as I’m guessing aside from the initial payment we would have the transfer balance included in the balance sheet as a contractual debtor.
‘Pool are watching their pennies to their great credit and the whole amount in the P&L of the year in which the transfer took place.


13.) 14 Jul 2021 22:59:44
Wolves Turnover was 190M in Financial year ending May 2020. Accounts have not been filed yet for year ending May 2021.


14.) 14 Jul 2021 23:23:09
Thanks for clarification Shanghai, your figure includes the deferred broadcasting revenues and mine didn’t.
Certainly a weird year to 31.05.20 with the season overhang.


15.) 15 Jul 2021 17:47:14
NES and Shanghai - if you read page 1 of the Wolves accounts it makes it very clear that Wolves turnover was £132m but on page 2 it states that it would have been £190m if the C.V. hadn't occured.
It also makes clear, as you say NES, that a large part although not all of the differnce will indeed be received in 20/ 21 however that will be part of the turnover for 20/ 21 not 19/ 20 which is the latest figures available.


16.) 15 Jul 2021 18:13:12
Jas M the transfer, (In this case Fabio's but in reality all buys and sales) ares reported in different ways depending on which of the 3 accounts you are looking at.
In the B/ S Fabio will be recorded as an asset at £28m now (would have been £35m originally) offset by either a £35m increase in net debt if we have paid for him less a £7m reduction in Profits (his depreciation to date ) or a combination of above for the bit we have paid and as a Creditor - someone we owe money to - for the bit we haven't.
In the cahflow in the first year it would be Fixed assets up £35m and either debt up or working capital down depending on if we paid or not.
In later years if we paid up front the only difference will be depreciation up £7m profit down £7m and no movement in debt
But if we are paying in stages net debt will rise by the amount we paid working capital will increase by the same amount and the 2 depreciation and profit movements will be repeated
Finally and probably most importantly in the p and l (as it forms the starting point for FFP) he is charged/ is a deduction from profits to the club at £7m pa plus his wage regardless of if we paid up front on in stages or indeed whatever those stage payments are
All v boring and not that relevant - the big q is can a club afford the tranfer or not.
That is by far a more complex q and the accounts are merely one factor - how good he is and how good the rest of the squad is are clearly others and your view is obviously different to mine but that is what makes football and this site interesting.


17.) 15 Jul 2021 18:28:46
Madman - great analogy. Silva is the stock and Wolves the investor.
Odd though for you to do so as even ignoring the depression bit investing in start ups is a v high risk strategy and for every Apple (Ronaldo? ) there are 100s no 1000s of companies that give no return at all indeed go bust ( zele ismael, josh Mccrachan etc etc etc) .
To be clear as an aside for the vast majority of people/ investors direct investment in stocks - even old privatisation favs or FTSE stalwarts - is not a sensible idea.
Depending on your tax posistion your pension or unit/ investment trusts are a far better way to go. Cheaper, safer and far more diversified.
But back to your analogy only the very very rich, (Man U) or the very foolish (hopefully not Wolves) should be investing in start ups in a depression.
Making sure you can feed your family and keep a roof over there head is far more important - ie we don't get relegated
Chasing the dream but losing your footing is not a smart thing to do
But as I said before it is all about balance and where that lies is different in everyones eyes and will depend amongst other things on how strong you think the existing squad is and how good you think Fabio is / will become and when - Note a share is yours for ever and a back ended return over the v long term is possible but Fabio now only has 4 years left on his contract and in reality in the final year you have to make a decision reasonbly early.
If as you postualte he doesn't contribute next year either we actually will only have 2 years to reap a reward before we are faced with the sell or offer new contract call
Appreciate your list will send one back later on with comments as this post is already v long - sorry.


18.) 15 Jul 2021 20:27:38
The future is old gold.
I understand your reasoning.
To compare Josh MacEachren and Zele Ismail to Fabio Silva is rather fool hardy. I understand your scepticism however we are talking about a Mendes player, a mendes club, a mendes investor in Fosun and a Mendes agency in gestifute tending to Fabio Silva's development. Its like a new stock with millions already backing the idea. Zele Ismail had one coach say he was worth £100m aged 15.
If Fabio scores 10 goals next season and brings more assists to his game the fee will be irrelevant. He will have already reached Lukaku hights whilst he was at Sandwell Town.


19.) 15 Jul 2021 20:43:48
Agreed TFIOG, how much more useful would the Strategic Report be if they split out the revenue deferred to the next financial year from the lost revenue? But anyway they’re painting a financial picture of what could have been and it will be useful to do some benchmarking versus our peers and closest competitors (a treat for another day) .
Well-explained analysis of the likely accounting treatment of Fabio and his contract. Regardless of whether we classify Fabio as a fixed asset or an intangible let’s hope he provides us with some fair value on the pitch this season 👍.


20.) 15 Jul 2021 22:54:28
Madman - good post.
However I could have named half a dozen of England's world cup winning under 17 side who have not trained on or countless others But choose zele as he was the golden boy for Wolves and Josh as he had such a great (but rude) chant attached to him.
BUT you are correct there are a lot of people with a vested interest in it working and Fabio had a stellar youth career so maybe he will work out.
If he gets the goals and assists you are def right the fee will be irrelevant - i'd want more than 10 and a few assists though - but i'm v greedy!


21.) 15 Jul 2021 23:02:50
NES of the £58m of lost revenue I believe that only just over £2m won't be recovered in the future. This is the match day money for games played behind closed doors.
However just because we are getting a £56m boost don't think it will be all sweetness and light in 20/ 21 as there is no European football and we ended the year 6 places lower - losing a fair chunk of revenue accordingly.
Plus I strongly suspect our wage bill will be heavily up with Semedo and Silva joining and our contract amortisation would have almost certainly increased a well due to the 2 new guys - offsetting this though we did make huge profits on Jota and Doherty.

Where as this been raised again I thought the suggestion had died a death last year.


3.) 02 Apr 2024 11:18:18
Agree with both Rated and Abbey, we're seriously short of squad depth and need good squad players who are comfortable as squad players both in terms of game time and salary expectations.


4.) 02 Apr 2024 13:17:14
Abbey we're looking to sign him on a free in the Summer.
Wages I don't think will be too much he wants to come to us too which is another plus.


5.) 02 Apr 2024 19:08:15
That's fair enough then rated. It sounds as if he'd fit in and bring abit of solid experienced cover.


 

 

17 Mar 2024 14:10:50
I'm not going to focus on the forwards in my debrief. My concern is we allowed 25 shots on goal with 12 of these on target. XG of 4. To allow this against a championship side with 3 centre halves and 5 across midfield whilst defending has shocked me badly. What a waste of a chance.

Ragingbull

1.) 17 Mar 2024 14:51:23
We missed Dawson. Kilman, Toti, Semedo and AIT all Tey to push up the pitch. Santiago Bueno played the Dawson position yesterday and did well but it was clear that Dawson organises the defence hence Kilman and Toti both being exposed when Coventry played the ball over the midfield.

Hopefully Dawson and Cunha will be ready for the Villa game.


2.) 17 Mar 2024 15:21:16
Rumours are nettos season finished,
Maybe why our performance was bad.
If that's the case, go maybe settling for where we are now, and staying up.
So disappointing if so


3.) 17 Mar 2024 17:05:57
I was thinking the same Greyleg but to be fair, no matter how naive yesterday's performance, we have over achieved the expectations of most.

Let's see this season out, get to wherever we get and look forward to a good window, pre season and a more experienced GON.


4.) 17 Mar 2024 18:21:58
Agree 100% Raging, the defence calls short every time. None of them know how to mark their man and positioning is a bit of a joke. All Coventry's threat came from left wing crosses, so Semedo stood off him and allowed him to get crosses in which we have no idea how to deal with. Their striker just stood at the back post waiting for the cross and despite having three centre backs on the pitch no one marked him. I know we desperately need a good striker but a half decent centre half would be good.


5.) 18 Mar 2024 06:47:09
Agree too Raging.
Inexcusable the way Coventry had chance after chance.
Could be a defining result for the rest of the season.

See all in 2 weeks or a fortnight which ever comes first.

Do we want to see the idiotic behaviour in the prem?. Seriously the more midland teams the better, but my personal choice would be Coventry, with obviously Leicester and maybe Southampton/Ipswich.

Would prefer to see them up. Decent ground that they will fill every week, excellent rivalry. Don't think they are good enough at the moment though. They didn't look anywhere near scoring against us and as we all know, goals ain't easy to come by in the PL. Trouble is, each year the gap gets bigger. They might get a few quid from their new owners like we did but getting a Neves esque player even at age 20 would now cost £30m plus. Look at the signings we made in the championship, Jota, Neves, Boly. how much would they cost now?

For me I 50/50 as 2 games could go either way as its a derby same with villa.
Villa could lose to wba we win agaisnt wba visa versa.

Absolutely not. I love seeing them languishing in The Championship. Better still if they were non league. Don't mind the other West Mids sides though Coventry, and Villa.

I don't like Derby matches, Villa is bad enough, that said I can't really say that it bothers me, Leicester look sure fire certs, second place now looks more competitive, from the play offs Coventry would be my choice but we know they are a lottery.

Defensive midfielders are 2 a penny. If he was instructed to be more offensive i'd keep him as he's got a great shot in his Arsenal. Whoops. :/.

Yes lots of fanfare about Campana. Throw him in Nuno.

Id take 17th place now if the rubbish got relegated and folded as a club.

Wing backs we've got 2 already here that will perform well. That lad from Rochdale is awesome.
