Dean Henderson could leave Manchester United on loan in January

Dean Henderson could leave Manchester United on loan in January, as the club reportedly delay their decision over what to do with Sergio Romero. That’s according to EPSN who report that Romero wants to leave Old Trafford. Henderson is said to be content with his role at United for now but could leave to get regular game time again, like he did at Sheffield United for two years but with Wolves credited with an interest. I would be surprised if Sheffield United didn’t show interest if the Reds are happy to loan Henderson out to another Premier League club. He knows the club and they’ve struggled in comparison to when he was between the sticks. David de Gea has started the season without too many errors, and there’s no reason to change his role as No. 1 from what I can see. United are blessed...

Trent Alexander-Arnold set to be out for a month

Trent Alexander-Arnold is expected to miss four weeks with a calf injury, The Athletic have reported. The right-back went down with the injury during the 1-1 draw with Manchester City on Sunday and it is believed that he will now be out of action until December. The 22-year-old is likely to miss Liverpool’s next three Premier League fixtures against Leicester, Brighton and Wolves as well as the Champions League clashes with Atalanta and Ajax. This is another blow to Jürgen Klopp in what has been a period of serious injuries to first-team players, with Virgil van Dijk recently ruled out for what is likely to be the rest of the season. Liverpool have also lost Fabinho, Thiago Alcântara and Naby Keïta for extended periods since the start of the campaign. Get more stories like this on Twitter ...

Nuno Espírito Santo wants handball ‘consistency’ after Wolves defeat

Nuno Espírito Santo expressed frustration with the current handball law after his Wolves side lost 1-0 at Leicester. Jamie Vardy converted a 15th-minute penalty after Max Kilman was adjudged to have committed an offence inside his own area. Most neutral observers felt that Kilman was hard done by, though there was also general acceptance that referee Anthony Taylor was bound by the most recent interpretation of the law to point to the spot. Speaking after the game, Nuno was wary of criticising the decision. “The referee saw it, but I don’t know. This situation is very difficult to analyse,” the Portugal native said, per the official Wolves website. “It’s not fair to say if it’s the right decision because VAR is not being consistent.” Nuno admitted that the situation has left him at a loss ...

Report: Manchester United keen on Wolverhampton Wanderers winger Adama Traore

According to Calciomercato (via Sport), Wolverhampton Wanderers winger Adama Traore in on the radar of Manchester United, but they face competition from his former side Barcelona and some European bigwigs. The Spain international is a graduate of the famous La Masia academy, but he couldn’t make the grade at the club, leaving to join Aston Villa in 2015. Traore struggled to impress at Villa Park, moving to Middlesbrough after a season before joining Wolves in the summer of 2018 for £22 million. The 24-year-old has become a force to reckon with at Molineux, scoring four goals and weighing in with nine assists in 37 Premier League appearances last term.

Leeds 0-1 Wolves: Three talking points from Premier League

Wolverhampton Wanderers moved to sixth in the Premier League table after beating Leeds 1-0 at Elland Road on Monday night. Raul Jimenez scored the only goal of the match as Wolves secured back to back wins in the Premier League. Here are three major talking points from the game: It was like the first day of a cricket test match:  There is a common saying that as a batsman you need to give the first session to the bowler, and once you soak the pressure, enjoy the next two sessions of the day. We found a similar sort of scenario here. Leeds started energetically and were at the top of their game at half time. Wolves absorbed the pressure, which allowed them to gradually settle into the game. In the second half, Wolves grew confident, found their rhythm and controlled the game well. Leed...

Since then, he has made huge progress under Nuno Espirito Santo.  The speedy winger made his debut for Spain earlier this month, and he is now set to sign a new contract at Wolves.

According to reports from The Mirror, Traore was heavily linked with a move to Liverpool this summer. The Reds were looking to bolster their attacking department and earmarked Traore as an option.

Leeds vs Wolves preview: Team News, Predicted line-ups, key stats

After some cracking games this weekend, it’s up to Leeds now to live up to the hype and round off the game-week in style when they take on Wolverhampton Wanderers on Monday night. Marcelo Bielsa’s side have been impressive so far and give the impression that they are here to stay. The opening day 3-4 defeat against Liverpool was a statement of the brand of football they’re going to play while the 88th-minute winner from Patrick Bamford in the 1-0 victory against Sheffield United suggests that the Whites are adept at the art of grinding out results as well. The 4-3 win against Fulham was a typical end-to-end thriller, while their latest 1-1 draw with Pep Guardiola’s Manchester City actually leads us to believe that Leeds are something special under El Loco. This summer has been crucial and ...

​Jurgen Klopp: I’ve been chasing Diogo Jota for two or three years

Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp admitted that he is delighted to call on Diogo Jota. The recent signing from Wolves came on against Liverpool and scored, helping his team to a 3-1 league win on Monday night. The Portuguese winger had a couple chances to score, before putting the game to bed with a smart finish on the edge of the penalty box. Jota may not be first choice this season, but Klopp admits he is a player the club has been looking at for several years. “I’m really pleased for Diogo Jota. Top, top guy,” Klopp told the BBC. “It’s so difficult to improve a team like ours. “He’s been on my list for two or three years, he’s here now.” Get more stories like this on Twitter You Deserve to Make Money Even When you are looking for Dates Online.

Report: Wolves keen on talented Frenchman who will cost around £18.2m this summer

Wolves are interested in signing the Angers defender Rayan Ait Nouri this summer. As per Le 10 Sport, Barcelona and Bayer Leverkusen are keen on the young full-back as well and it will be interesting to see if the Premier League club comes forward with an official bid in the coming weeks. Apparently, the German outfit have already made their move to sign Nouri. The Frenchman is valued at €20m (£18.2m) and Wolves can certainly afford that after the sales of Doherty and Jota. Rayan Ait Nouri is a talented young player with a big future. He could be a solid long-term investment for the Premier League club. Wolves have done well to develop talented young players over the last few years and they could do wonders with someone of Nouri’s potential. Nuno is a fantastic coach and he could the ...

‘Just a shame’ – Villa legend aims dig at Wolves’ transfer strategy

Aston Villa’s all-time leading goalscorer in the English Premier League Gabriel Agbonlahor isn’t a fan of Wolverhampton Wanderers’ transfer strategy. The Molineux Stadium outfit signed Portugal international right-back Nelson Semedo from Barcelona yesterday, and they now have enough Portuguese players in their squad to almost make a starting XI. Wolves are only a defender away from being able to field a full Portugal XI 🇵🇹 pic.twitter.com/qYPwafg5ju — ESPN FC (@ESPNFC) September 23, 2020 Wolves manager Nuno Espirito Santo clearly loves the idea of signing his countrymen, and the club can’t complain after finishing in seventh-place in each of the last two seasons since he guided them to the top-flight. However, Agbonlahor isn’t particularly delighted that they are always sig...

Wolves complete signing of Barcelona star

Wolves have completed the signing of right-back Nelson Semedo from Barcelona in a deal worth around £29m. Semedo has signed a contract that will keep him at Molineux until June 2023, with an option to extend it to June 2025. Wolves head coach Nuno Espirito Santo was in the market for another option at right-back following the sale of Republic of Ireland international Matt Doherty to Tottenham on a four-year-deal. Semedo is represented by Gestifute, the agency run by Jorge Mendes, who plays a key part in many Wolves’ deals. The 26-year-old former Benfica defender becomes Wolves’ fifth signing of the transfer window following the arrivals of Fabio Silva, Fernando Marcal, Vitor Ferreira and Ki-Jana Hoever. Hoever signed from Liverpool last week as forward Diogo Jota’s completed a move in the ...
