Wolves issue 'hands off' transfer warning as academy graduate finds new club

Euro 2024 is now in the books and it proved to be yet another scintillating tournament of international football. It is never easy to take a defeat in the final of any tournament, but it is time to move on - here are all the biggest rumours from around Wolverhampton Wanderers today.

A Ligue 1 club have been heavily linked with a move for a Wolves forward. Nevertheless, the midlands outfit are intent on keeping him at the Molineux Stadium and have giving him a prohibitively high transfer price to achieve this end. As things stand, it is unclear where the player stands in the midst of the situation.

Meanwhile, a former Wolves midfielder has found himself a new club, after his old team released him at the end of the 2023/24 season. He will be playing his football in the National League in the following campaign - but who is it?

Wolves issue ‘hands off’ warning to clubs trying to sign Hwang Hee-chan

Wolves star Hwang Hee-chan is a man in demand - but Gary O’Neil’s men are not going to let him leave the club without a fight. Yesterday, he had reportedly agreed a deal to sign for Marseille, but Wolves do not seem to be on board with this idea.

In response to Marseille’s interest in the player, they slapped a ‘ridiculous’ transfer fee on Hwang’s head to deter them and any other potential suitors that the South Korean international may have over the course of the ongoing summer transfer window.

O’Neil does not want to let Hwang go ‘at any cost’ - clearly, his importance to the team is invaluable. Last season, Hwang made 29 Premier League appearances, scoring 12 goals and notching up three assists along the way.

Previously, the 28-year-old has played for clubs such as RB Salzburg, RB Leipzig and Hamburg. As previously mentioned, he is also a mainstay of South Korea’s national football team - he has won 66 caps for his country and has scored a total of 14 goals on the international stage.

Former Wolves player David Davis signs for Kidderminster Harriers

Former Wolves midfielder David Davis has found himself a new club, after he signed for Kidderminster Harriers on a free transfer. The move was confirmed today on Kidderminster’s official club website today.

Davis played for Wolves between the years of 2009 and 2014, after he progressed through their academy ranks - he also spent time in the academies of Walsall and Tividale. He made 53 league appearances for the club, before he left to join Birmingham City for a fee in the region of £150,000.

Outside of this, Davis has played for clubs such as Shrewsbury Town, Inverness Caledonian Thistle and Walsall. He was most recently signed with Forest Green Rovers, though he also enjoyed a brief spell out on loan at Solihull Moors in the National League. Aged 33, he is in the twilight of his career, though Kidderminster seem to think that he still has plenty to offer from the heart of midfield.
