Wolves struggling to offload 23-year-old due to his £65,000-a-week wages – report
Wolverhampton Wanderers are struggling to find buyers for Patrick Cutrone this summer due to his high wages, Football Insider reports. Cutrone joined Wolves from AC Milan two years ago, but he has since made just 28 appearances for the club across all competitions. The 23-year-old spent time on loan with Fiorentina and Valencia last season but barely made an impact as he was a regular on the bench for both clubs. With two years left on his contract, Wolves are aiming to recoup some of the £16 million spent, but there have been no offers on the table. The major stumbling block appears the striker’s £65,000-per-week wages. The Italian is currently one of the top earners at the Midlands outfit. It is reported that Wolves may have to loan him out once again with a salary share. Sport...

A selection of Wolverhampton Wanderers fans reacted on Twitter after Rafa Mir’s heroics for Spain in the Olympic Games quarter-final against Ivory Coast. La Roja trailed after just 10 minutes into their last-eight clash after Eric Bailly bundled the ball into the back of the net from a corner. Dani Olmo brought them level at the half-an-hour mark.

Big blow for Wolves as report claims £29m ace could be Aston Villa bound

Wolves offered chance to sign €30m forward with 13 goal contributions last season – report
Wolverhampton Wanderers have been offered the chance to sign AC Milan forward Rafael Leao through his representative, Calciomercato reports. The Portuguese has three years left on his contract with the Rossoneri, but he is not considered an indispensable figure. The Serie A outfit are willing to accept offers of €30 million for the 22-year-old. He has been offered to Wolves by his agent Jorge Mendes.
