Wolves rumours 2

09 Jul 2025 13:50:08
Latest is Wolves rivaling AC Milan for right back Marc Pubill around 15 mill euros talks taking place.

10 Jul 2025 15:06:51
Looks a good prospect and given his likely wages demands should allow us to move from Semedo without hurting the finances!

08 Jul 2025 20:05:00
Read earlier that Wallace Yan to Wolves is near completion. However this rumour has since been removed. Then some ITK journalist has said Joao Gomes has personally recommended the club to Yan and the move will be completed in the next few days.

We wait with baited breath.

08 Jul 2025 21:05:04
As per normal wandering Star we all wait with bated breath to sea if Wolves sign anybody under Shi's leadership. Would it surprise you if we did but it's some 19year old with no experience but lots of potential so we can sell for a huge profit later on.

08 Jul 2025 22:50:00
What, you mean like when the club signed AIT, Jota and Neves. When will they learn eh?

09 Jul 2025 03:13:13
An agreement has been made according to a Brazillian media outlet, we'll just wait and see.

09 Jul 2025 08:50:58
Wandering no I didn't mean that I know we always sign players with potential I just wish now and then we would sign more experienced players to help the cause like Agdadou.

09 Jul 2025 16:46:02
Confirmed by Sports Witness: Yann is NOT signing

09 Jul 2025 18:26:51
Sports Witness? I've got a more reliable Chocolate Fireguard then their news.

07 Jul 2025 16:24:01
Wolves defender Nasser Djiga in talks to join Scottish side Rangers on loan. Likely to be a straight loan with no buy option to help him adapt to British football and play regularly.
Done deal now.

07 Jul 2025 15:39:47
I see we are reported to be considering signing Christopher Wooh from Rennes. With Mr. Wooh's record with a Chinese Laundry then Window cleaning could George Formby write a new verse to his song from beyond the grave to make him feel welcome! 😁

09 Jul 2025 10:00:11
That's lost on the younger posters Ken. 😂😁

09 Jul 2025 14:24:24
So I noticed! Mind you it wasn't very good, it just sprung into mind when I saw the news clip. So I thought why not, probably should just thought not!

02 Jul 2025 21:02:21
Forget about Guessand he don't want to come, he hasn't even responded to Wolves.

02 Jul 2025 22:35:11
I wouldn't bother either. 😂😂😂😂

03 Jul 2025 09:39:27
RIP Diogo and his brother. Just married too. Terrible news


Sorry, but I'm not sure how to start a new thread

04 Jul 2025 07:48:30
Just go into 'create a new post'at the top Tim. Write your post and send. The Eds will decide if it's Rumours, Banter or anything else.

04 Jul 2025 09:06:59
Thanks for that

02 Jul 2025 16:34:16
Djiga is in talks with Rangers over season long loan to get some playing time could be a good move for him play every week.

02 Jul 2025 18:18:20
Agreed

02 Jul 2025 19:42:29
We brought him in a rash end of window buy. 10mil on a young defender who can't play is stupid when we need players who can play now

01 Jul 2025 16:57:42
So Shi has come out and said there are NO plans to expand the ground but wants to make tweaks to the Steve Bull stand and improve hospitality.

02 Jul 2025 00:46:44
Sounds like we are hiring a new chef to me, classic Jeff! 😂👍

03 Jul 2025 14:52:41
If any club is looking for a tone deaf Chairman who can't read the room we've got one you can have!

04 Jul 2025 08:42:01
😂😂😂

29 Jun 2025 14:03:43
Don't know if true have Wolves made KWP an offer just read somewhere they have but nothing has been said.

29 Jun 2025 15:08:59
They're in talks mate.

29 Jun 2025 15:35:24
Seems abit of a waste of a place if we sign another cb.
As Doc and Lima can fill this position. But we would have more pace at CB with Agbadou, Renan and Toti for example. I probably would play Lima as Vitor likes the wing backs to get forward and Lima seems like the sort of player that can take Doc's mantle. And build a relationship with Gomes, Andre, Lopes and Larsen.
I think we will sign two cb's and a left back. But even Agbadou could fill in at right back if we had other could cb's brought in.
The decision is Vitors whether Lima, Bueno and R Gomes are ready to make the step up.
But its the forwards that are the most concerning as we could have Hwang, Guedes, Cunha, Sarabia and F Silva leave in the same window.
When you type it like that GON had some squad at his disposal last summer just didn't work out. Also interesting in the Guardian GON preferred a back 4 explains a lot of issues we had in the early games last season.

30 Jun 2025 13:26:05
KWP can play both on left and right, so to say he would be a waste of a squad number is not really right, he will fill the role quite well to replace Semedo, and he's on a free, be a good bit of business for an experienced player

30 Jun 2025 16:47:20
It is though Doc played same number of games and scored more goals. KWP Not exactly great numbers with Southampton.
A step up would be Acuna from Athletico Madrid that's an improvement and Lino at LWB if we got both for £20m that would be a great deal and Fabio Silva as a sweetner maybe. That moves a big earner off the wage bill and gets two astute experienced players that have a fair few years in them left.

30 Jun 2025 19:24:23
How many homegrown players do we need to have in squad? this is where KWP is a bonus, as for goals v games, DOC would have struggled in the Southampton team of last season, their roles on the pitch were different also, so not sure its a fair comparison.

02 Jul 2025 09:28:41
I belive we need 8 of them in the Prem, pretty sure though that Doc does not qualify as one (due to signing him after his 18 birthday) but may be wrong 👍

{Ed001's Note - you don't actually need to have any, but you can only have up to 17 non-homegrown players in your 25 man squad, over the age of 21. Under 21 year olds do not need to be included in the squad, so don't affect it.

There are two variants of it as well, depending on if you are in European competition or just the Prem. The Prem rules mean you have those 8 slots that can only be taken by homegrown players, which is players that have spent 3 years in the same association (ie English in Wolves case). That can be at Arsenal, Newcastle, Stockport County, Newport County even, just so long as they are under the umbrella of the English FA.

UEFA has a slightly different rule, with there being 4 spots for homegrown players and 4 reserved for club trained players. So they have to have been at the club's youth set up.}

Update on Doyle Sheff U have joined in so Birmingham have offered Wolves a loan to buy in the region of 10mill so we'll make a profit of 2.75mill.

29 Jun 2025 13:45:10
Loan yes, sell no! Not worth it after Man. City take their cut.

23 Jun 2025 20:36:41
Seems that the rumour mill is suggesting that we have concrete interest in Nicholas Raskin. Have seen him play a few times and think that he would be an excellent addition if we can get it over the line.

23 Jun 2025 23:40:29
Would he be a back up for Andre/Gomes?
Or do you think he can play further forward?
It sounds as if Rangers would want £10-15m?
Whilst he might well be worth it unless he is going to be a first choice I am not sure we can afford to be paying that sort of money for a back up - unless we are getting decent money for Traore and or Doyle?
Horrible thought surely we wouldn't dare sell one of the Brazilians this summer as well?

24 Jun 2025 06:02:28
Don't know much about Raskin other than he's a full International. Maybe he will play alongside Andre with Joao Gomes moving further up the pitch. Either way, if he improves our squad, then he's a welcome addition.

24 Jun 2025 07:05:39
He is a high energy box to box player with greater technical ability than our two current holding midfielders, breaks the lines going forward and has an eye for a good pass. Plays with enthusiasm and forward thinking. Not unlike Tony Currie, remember him?

24 Jun 2025 12:51:10
That is a big claim better than Andre, Doyle and Traore?

24 Jun 2025 13:27:19
Better passing range than Andre, better stamina than Doyle, better technique than Traore and I mean no disrespect to those players who can all play their part.

24 Jun 2025 15:51:38
Hahaha but he isn't Claude Makelele.
Andre's passing is very good over last season he was playing through balls every game.
Andre's all round game is very strong he is aggressive and has the skills to carry and play the ball forward.
I think he was making up for short coming around him especially in defence before Agbadou and Toti were playing each week.
Never really seen anything to suggest Doyle's stamina is an issue. He was normally played as a sub.
Traore is a combative midfielder I don't expect technical boubacour

24 Jun 2025 17:30:51
Your welcome to your opinion Madman but also consider that Doyle and Traore are both being considered for sale so obviously the manager doesn't rate them as highly as you do. But each to his own and opinions will always differ.

25 Jun 2025 11:03:51
Not entirely true Derry, VP has specifically come out and said that Doyle has been unlucky not to get more game time and that it's a simple case of not fitting the system. Don't disagree on Traore mind, was a REAL shame he got injured when he did last season because selling him would have been good business, the guy is absolutely bang average! I've not seen Raskin play but all I will say is that the Scottish league is worse than the Champ, doesn't take a lot to shine there 🧐

25 Jun 2025 11:35:07
I agree that he would be coming to a more competitive league so would perhaps need some time to adjust but he also does well at international level so, at his age and with further development quite likely, could easily bridge the gap and become integral to the squad.

28 Jun 2025 21:46:16
A dead donkey would look gud playing in scot prem especially for 1of the top2teams.all the others are non league standard.waste of money
