Wolves are “confident” they will avoid Financial Fair Play punishment after a high turnover of player sales in the summer transfer window.
The summer months were dominated by concerns about Wolves’ spending and compliance with regulations. The club are now “set to avoid future punishment” after parting with 17 players and collecting in £140million in transfer money.
According to the Telegraph, Wolves “could have been in serious trouble” if they did not make £90m in player sales this past summer. But some high-profile departures, including Ruben Neves (£47m) and Matheus Nunes (£53m) ensured they cruised beyond that target.
It is also said there are no plans to sell any more top first-team stars but that the club will “remain under temporary restrictions” through the January transfer window. The shackles look set to be loosened next summer, with Gary O’Neil reportedly eyeing a new striker to allow Matheus Cunha more of a free role. Che Adams is among those to have been linked.
The Telegraph also note that Wolves have dropped their transfer interest in Salernitana striker Boulaye Dia, and have entered into contract talks with defender Hugo Bueno. Goalkeeper Jose Sa and midfielder Petro Neto have both signed new deals recently.
