Report: Hammers striker wants to retire at club despite recent interest from Wolves

According to The Athletic’s Roshane Thomas, West Ham United striker Michail Antonio believes he could retire at the London Stadium club despite interest from Wolverhampton Wanderers and Real Betis in recent seasons. The 30-year-old has proven crucial to the Hammers’ survival bid since the Premier League resumed, scoring twice and assisting once to help the side earn four points in their last two games. Manager David Moyes will hope Antonio can keep up the form over the course of the remaining five games, and that shouldn’t be a problem given the teams they will be facing. West Ham host Burnley on Wednesday before travelling to Norwich City on Saturday. They host Watford six days later before a trip to Manchester United, and will finish the campaign with a home clash against Aston Villa. Th...

Report: Everton and Wolves keen on 28-yr-old midfield star, Ancelotti knows him well

Everton and Wolves are thought to be keen on signing the Colombian midfielder James Rodriguez this summer.

Report: Wolves eyeing summer move for 9-goal La Liga midfielder who will cost €15-20m

Wolves are keen on signing the Real Madrid midfielder Oscar Rodriguez this summer. As per Onda Cero, they can sign the 22-year-old for a bargain now. Rodriguez has been on loan at Leganes this season and he has made quite the impression. His performances have caught Nuno’s attention and the Premier League side wants to bring him to Molineux now. The midfielder has 9 goals and 2 assists in La Liga this season. Apparently, Los Blancos could cash in on the player this summer because they might not be able to provide him with regular first team football. Real Madrid are well stocked in the midfield department and Rodriguez should look to leave the club permanently. Wolves would be a superb move for him. Nuno has worked wonders with the talents at his disposal and he could help Oscar Rodriguez ...

Hammers star comments on Fornals’ miss against Wolves, admits side miss injured 32y/o

West Ham United resumed Premier League action with a 2-0 defeat at the hands of Wolverhampton Wanderers on Saturday, and they will hope to do much better when they play Tottenham Hotspur this evening. Weekend’s loss left them hanging precariously outside of the relegation zone, but skipper Mark Noble reckons things might have been different had Pablo Fornals converted a rare chance in the opening minutes of the game. The Spaniard was through on goal from a tight angle, volleying his effort into the stand when he could have chosen to square pass the ball to Michail Antonio who had the best chance of scoring. West Ham were punished for the miss in the second-half, with the visitors scoring twice within the space of 11 minutes 28 minutes after the restart. “We didn’t create too many clear cha...

‘Pathetic’, ‘Why tweet this’ – Some Hammers fans react to Fabianski’s bizarre post following Wolves loss

West Ham United resumed their Premier League campaign with a 2-0 defeat at the hands of Wolverhampton Wanderers at the London Stadium on Saturday. It was their 17th loss of the season, and only a superior goal difference currently separates them from the relegation zone as they are level on points with 18th-placed Bournemouth. The Hammers were poor for the majority of the game, registering only two shots on target, and none particularly troubled Wolves goalkeeper Rui Patricio. David Moyes was without injured striker Sebastian Haller and centre-back Angello Ogbonna, and the West Ham manager will hope to have the duo back for Tuesday’s derby with Tottenham Hotspur. Despite playing out a goalless draw until the 72nd minute, the visitors never stopped threatening to score, and Raul Jimenez ope...

Report: Wolves have made a bid for €25m-rated Everton target

Wolves are thought to be keen on signing the Barcelona defender Jean-Clair Todibo. The player has been heavily linked with a move to Everton this summer. As per Mundo Deportivo (via Sportwitness), Wolves have made a bid for the young defender. Todibo is currently on loan at Schalke and the German side do not plan to sign him permanently. It will be interesting to see if Wolves can agree on a deal with the Catalan giants now. The Molineux outfit need to improve their defensive options and Todibo would be a good addition for them. He is a talented young player with a lot of room to improve. Nuno is very good at nurturing young players and he could help the youngster develop into a quality defender. It will be interesting to see how Everton react after this move from Wolves. They have be...

Opinion: Klopp will love what £60m Liverpool target has told his club’s official website

As reported by The Sun last month, Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp wants to bring Wolverhampton Wanderers forward Adama Traore to Anfield this summer, and it will take at least £60 million to prise him away from the Molineux Stadium. The 24-year-old has scored four goals and assisted seven others in 28 league appearances this term, but it is his speed that has likely caught Klopp’s eyes. Liverpool boast of speed machines in Sadio Mane and Mohamed Salah, but Traore is arguably the fastest man in the English top-flight, and what he told Wolves’ official website of recent should be music to the ears of the German manager. “I’ve been working a lot in the house and I’ve been using the plans they’ve given us, because in myself, I want to be the best I can be, so when I get back on the pitch, I ca...

Report: Klopp losing patience with Liverpool player, eyeing £50m move for Portuguese City want

According to The Sun, Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp wants Wolverhampton Wanderers midfielder Ruben Neves at Anfield this summer. The Portuguese is rated £50 million, and the Reds boss reckons he can help freshen up his midfield for next season’s Premier League title defence. Neves has impressed for Wolves over the last two seasons and is also attracting Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola. The Catalan saw his side’s title challenge crumble this season and is looking to strengthen his squad for next season’s domestic battle with Liverpool. The Anfield outfit aren’t short of options in the middle of the park, but Gini Wijnaldum is stalling on signing an extension with just a year left on his current contract, while Klopp is said to be losing patience with Naby Keita. The Guinean arrived f...

Report: Wolves submit offer for French centre-back Spurs & Arteta want

According to L’Équipe (via GFFN), Wolverhampton Wanderers have submitted a £13.5 million offer for Reims centre-back Axel Disasi as boss Nuno Espirito Santo looks to strengthen his backline ahead of next season. The French youngster is also wanted in North London, with both Tottenham Hotspur and Arsenal keeping tabs on him. Disasi is also wanted by Bundesliga and La Liga sides after helping Reims achieve the best defensive record (21 goals conceded) in the Ligue 1 in 2019-20 and the second-best across Europe’s top-five leagues. Southampton have also been linked with the 22-year-old, and it appears a move to the Premier League could happen. Despite Wolves’ attempt to beat both Spurs and the Gunners to Disasi’s signature, they are yet to meet Reims’ demands as the club are holding out for £1...

Report: Wolves looking to sign 28-yr-old attacker, talks already underway

Wolves are interested in signing the Espanyol forward Wu Lei. According to Marca, the player will be out of contract in December and the Premier League club are already in talks to sign him. It will be interesting to see if Lei joins them in the summer. Alternatively, he could wait until he is a free agent. Either way, Wolves are unlikely to have to spend a lot on him. The 28-year-old will add depth to Nuno’s side next season if Wolves manage to sign him this summer. He can play as the forward or in the wide areas. The Chinese international has four goals to his name this season. Lei is a good finisher and he could be the back up for Jimenez/Jota when needed. Wolves need to add more depth to their squad if they want to challenge for Champions League football. Also, they will need a bigger ...
