The latest transfer news for Wolves as Matheus Cunha’s future continues to be front and centre of the rumours.

Wolves are preparing for their first full summer transfer window under Vitor Pereira, having already orchestrated the signings of the likes of Emmanuel Agbadou and Marhsall Munetsi during the winter.

The Old Gold secured Premier League survival on Easter Sunday after a hard-fought 1-0 win over Manchester United. Thanks to a stunning free-kick from Pablo Sarabia, Wolves dealt the Red Devils another disappointing result in their dismal Premier League season.

After a tricky start to the season, Pereira’s side can now head into the final match-days without pressure and look forward to the summer window. Wolves could be set to lose some key players amid the recent interest shown but they have targets of their own to pursue.

Wolves highlight ‘serious option’ for summer transfer window

Wolves are looking to bolster their forward line ahead of another demanding Premier League season. According to Fichajes reporter Juan Arrien, Atletico Madrid’s Samuel Lino has emerged as a ‘serious option’ for the Old Gold as the days tick down towards the summer window.

The 25-year-old has had a mixed bag of appearances for the La Liga side this season, starting 18 fixtures but coming off the bench on eight occasions. Lino has contributed four goals and six assists so far in all competitions.

He plays predominantly on the left-wing but can also operate on the right. Lino has also slotted into midfield roles as well, especially this season, which showcases his versatility for any future clubs interested in him.

As things stand, Wolves have just four natural wingers on their roster but both Sarabia and Carlos Forbs are nearing the end of their respective contracts.

Matheus Cunha future could impact Wolves move for Lino

The report claims that the potential departure of star forward Matheus Cunha ‘could be key’ in Lino’s chances of making a move to Molineux this summer. A transfer fee has not been mentioned but Transfermarkt currently value the Atletico Madrid star at €25 million (£21m).

Cunha has been attracting attention in abundance this season thanks to his superb performances in front of goal. The Brazilian has 17 goals and six assists in all competitions this season and is heavily linked with a move to Man United at the end of the season.

It was reported back in December that the Red Devils ‘would be willing’ to pay in the region of €80 million (£66m) to bring Cunha to Old Trafford.

Cunha also suggested he was looking to pursue opportunities elsewhere with his comments during an interview with The Guardian.

“I had a lot of offers but I wouldn’t feel well if I had done it,” he said, reflecting on previous transfer interest. “Some things you can’t control but I couldn’t leave the club in the middle of the season, in a difficult situation, in the relegation zone.

“Now, we’re close to achieving our goal [of staying up]. But I’ve made it clear that I need to take the next step. I want to fight for titles, for big things. I have potential.”
