The manager of one of their targets has acknowledged that he is “asking” to leave the club this summer, which has given Wolves an advantage in their pursuit of him.
O’Neill wishing for a shift
Gary O’Neill, the manager of Wolves, took over the team just a few days before the Premier League season started, but he is eager to improve even more next year. Wolves are now in midtable.
| Wolves under Gary O’Neil (all comps) | |
| Games | 44 |
| Win % | 38.6% |
| Points per game | 1.34 |
| Goals scored per 90 | 1.5 |
However, I’m not completely sure how much we’ll be able to do or how much of my ideas and some of the things I look to do over the summer will be feasible given the financial circumstances until those kinds of discussions have occurred for the club.
If no one leaves, I don’t think we’ll have any money.
“There are players out on loan that have value that we might be able to do some bits with, so if we decided not to sell a big player, there might be some little bits and pieces that we can do.”
This summer, moves away from the Old Gold have been linked to Pedro Neto and Rayan Ait-Nouri, while Max Kilman is rumoured to be on Manchester United’s radar. If any of the three go, the club will probably receive enormous compensation, which they may use to bolster the roster.
Bento in the spotlight
Bento, the custodian for Athletico Paranaense, who has shown promise in the Brazilian top division and is anticipated to go this summer, had previously been linked to Wolves. They now have more momentum on that front after his own management acknowledged that he is likely to go.
Cuca disclosed to the media following their most recent match, in which the Brazil international saved a penalty, that the goalie is requesting to be let go.
Thankfully or unfortunately, Bento will soon leave us. He’s requesting a ticket [out of Brazil], and that’s what the players want—a spot in Europe where they can build up savings and compete in the major international tournaments. He deserves it,” he remarked.
