18 players you forgot played for Wolves - from Tottenham legend to World Cup winner - gallery

From a world-class goalkeeper to a host of failed wonderkids, here are 18 players you probably forgot played for Wolverhampton Wanderers over the years.

The international break is now upon us, and it may only be a couple of weeks away from league action, but fans up and down the country will be missing watching their clubs.

It’s been an intense few months since the World Cup break, with teams trying their best to fit countless matches into a tight fixture schedule – but now things have gone eerily quiet.

Seeing players head off on international duty is great but these periods often see fans reminiscing about their clubs as well as their countries.

One topic of conversation is often the ‘I bet you forgot this player played here’, and Wolverhampton Wanderers are no exception to that. In fact, there are so many that we’ve had to limit it to just 18 for the purpose of this article.

Some arrived at Molineux on a temporary loan basis, whereas others were actually around for multiple years - yet many Wanderers supporters will have completely forgotten their presence.

Without further ado, here are the 18 players we’ve picked out that may well have slipped your mind. How many of these did you know once donned the gold and black of Wolves?
