Rumour is

Callum Wilson on a FREE

1.) 19 Jun 2025 10:38:29
Good shout

2.) 19 Jun 2025 11:28:52
Experienced, would be a useful signing.

3.) 19 Jun 2025 11:30:04
No thanks he's always injured.

4.) 19 Jun 2025 12:02:48
Have to agree with Shada here, if he wasn't always injured/returning from injury then he wouldn't be leaving on a free! Add to this that at 33 he's just had his first season where he hasn't actually scored all season then I just can't see him justifying the (likely) large wages! ?

5.) 19 Jun 2025 13:17:42
Made of glass. No thanks.

6.) 19 Jun 2025 18:06:03
I would welcome him with open arms, if.


He comes in on a low salary and gets paid per appearance and goal.

7.) 19 Jun 2025 20:27:14
Seemingly Yuri Alberto is available at £17m would be a great buy at that price. How true that is who knows? Probably click bait but at that price I'm sure we would be interested.

8.) 19 Jun 2025 21:23:05
Tim that is a sensible response.
We can't afford to be paying non playing players but if he stays fit he is a screaming bargain.
So compromise with a structured contract as you suggest.
Note would be HG too and we are short on those

9.) 20 Jun 2025 00:26:07
He is past it.
Should have signed him with Fiber years ago.

10.) 20 Jun 2025 15:48:34
We had the chance years ago were looking at him or Leon Clarke, we know what happened there

19 Jun 2025 09:52:50
Cunha and RAN were always leaving - focus on what we have within the club and a few clever signings and we will be fine.

SA (or if going POPE/hermanson from Leicester)
Missed a trick not getting Betteneli (Eng quoter experienced back up)

Mosquera (back from inj)
Agbadoo
Toti
Doc, Djiga, Bueno (backUP) and loan Mpemiou to get game time

Bueno / Rodrigo LWB (and make a loan signing)

Lima / Rodrigo RWB - make a solid signing

No CM will want to come and play understudy to Andre / Jao so CM will be tough but try find a similar profile to them pair and get them in long term

Munetsi, JRB, Traore (if stays) as back up and Agbadoo can play

Sign 2 exciting no10's who fit the system Guessard looks a great Cunha style replacement, and i would go get Omari Hutchinson from Ipswich or even take a chance on Chiesa on-loan from Liverpool

JRB, Rodrigo gomes further forward, Munetsi (but prefer CM backup) and get Mane involved. I know it's left field but i think Chiqinho with a good pre-season could offer something

Strand Larson picks himself up top

Needs a back up experienced striker (like a Girourd 3 or 4 years ago) who could impact games off the bench, and a CF with potential to develop

Doyle on loan to prem club (as will lose money if we sell 50% sell on)

Sarabia, Semedo leaving

Get money for Silva, Hwang, Guedes, Johnstone maybe even Bueno / Traroe if players come in

1.) 19 Jun 2025 21:33:50
Tks good post
We would need those 2 number 10s to be very good indeed. However Guessard as one of them may well be.
The defence is however a lot weaker without Semedo and RAN who also both, especially RAN, added a fair bit to our offence. Consequently we might need your signings at WB, especially at RWB, to be first choices not back ups.
Also think we need to strengthen the back up CBs as Doc may no longer be up to being first cab off the rank and I don't rate S Bueno and don't know Djiga.
Being greedy I want a new back up GK and CF

Hi all

Unpopular opinion but I think we will recruit well this year and retain more of the players who currently think will leave (some of them won't have options to leave they think).

New GK (Freddie Woodman Liverpool 3rd choice). Build it around a young keeper like Burnley did with Trafford.

Trippier (C).
Convince Santi to stay.
Toti will be great in champ.
Wolfe will stay.

Tommy Doyle - champ experience and forward passes.
New combatative athletic CDM (maybe loan from prem).

Rodrigo - RM.
Mane - LM (inverted like MGW at Forest role).

Armstrong.


off Raul Jimenez (that's the signing that galvenises fans & owners) and whatever wages cost will get back in shirt sales / season ticket renewals.

Keep a blend of experience and youth so squad has options (DOC as homegrown, JRB, Lima but as a RM option not fullback, Bouba, Enzo Gonzalez, Sasa, Edozie,

Sign

Experienced CB on way down - Adam Webster (leader).
Young Fullback.
Experienced CM as insurance policy.
New exciting raw wide player who beats players someone like Chiqinho who we never give a chance to.
Experienced No 2 GK to step in if young GK dips in form.

1.) 20 May 2026 17:45:49
Can't see Boubacar Traore or Tommy Doyle being at Wolves next season. Better to cash in asap while their resale value is relatively high. Wolves need an older, more savvy player in the middle of the park, who can possibly step up to the Premier League.

Who do you suggest?

Djiga back as 4th CB - raw but what's alternative for him sell him cheap
Bouba as back up CDM
Enzo Gonzalez back up winger
Sasa back up striker / option of bench
Edozie

Sign

Experienced CB on way down - Adam Webster (Brighton) leader
New FB who can play either side - Trippier would be a good shout and have set pieces and leader
New exciting raw wide player - someone like Chiqinho
Tap into Loan market well
Experienced No 2 GK to step in if yound Gk dips in form

And, as long as Toti stays, we'll struggle. He's useless.

2.) 19 May 2026 14:27:47
So Wolves are keeping pretty much their entire squad? Most of the players have proven they're not worth a tripe supper.

There has to be a massive change at Wolves. Almost all of the players currently at the club either aren't good enough or want to be elsewhere.

3.) 19 May 2026 15:20:10
I think there also needs to be a bit of a reality check here on what our available wage budget will be. So, if we keep Djiga he is currently on a reported (and somewhat insane) £70k a week, so let's say (at best) he has a 50% relegation wage drop in his contract, that would still put him on £35k a week. For context, the average wage in the Champ is apparently between £15-20k. So, how then are we going to maintain a (supposedly) 4th choice CB, who therefore is hardly playing on £35k a week?!
Same goes for half the other names I'm reading.

I love Raul and I like Kyle Walker, but how much do you think those guys would want to sign for us? I suspect at least £40k a week and we simply won't have that kind of wage budget going spare. Like I say, I think a reality check is needed for some, because where we are headed is an insanely competitive league and not one where you can afford to hand out £40k contracts just for a bit of nostalgia! Gonna be an interesting window, but filling our squad with aging and over paid players is not going to achieve anything other than further FFP headaches!

4.) 19 May 2026 16:57:04
Jeff Shi's sheer incompetence is going to cost us big time. I believe all the players have a 25% reduction clause in the salary if relegated. Capology say the yearly player wage bill is £70m, so it will now be £52.5m. Players like Joao are on big money, so simply have to be moved on.



Nathan Shi has inherited a complete mess. I hope he is a man of his word, and things are already in place, so we have a fighting chance next season, but I think that Jeff has ruined so much, so fast, that I, as a 50 year old, will never see Wolves in the Premier League again in my lifetime.
