Wolves could light up the transfer window by hijacking Nottingham Forest’s move for a Fulham star.

Wolverhampton Wanderers have already signed two wingers this summer but are hunting for a third, Birmingham World understands.

Vitor Pereira has welcomed Fer Lopez and Jhon Arias from Celta Vigo and Fluminense so far for a combined £34.5 million, but more firepower is expected to be added before the end of the window. Ideally, Wolves will sign a new striker and a speedy winger as Pereira wants support for Jorgen Strand Larsen and someone who can provide pace on counter attacks.

For the right flank, several options have been speculated to be of interest, including Crystal Palace’s Jesurun Rak-Sakyi, Flamengo’s Wallace Yan and Sao Paolo’s Lucas Ferreira. But there’s one player yet to be linked who we here at Birmingham World believe could be a great fit. And, if he were to sign, it would be a romantic reunion.

Wolves should hijack Nottingham Forest swoop

A terrific winger option, we reckon, could be Adama Traore. It’s now been two years since the rapid Spaniard left for Fulham but he could theoretically come back to Molineux, replacing the pace Carlos Forbs - albeit a failure - was brought in to provide last season.

Nottingham Forest have recently been linked with Traore and have already held talks with Fulham. The Telegraph reported on Monday (July 28) that Nuno Espírito Santo is eager to reunite with Traore at the City Ground, so Forest have opened negotiations to sign him.

Wolves would have to perform a hijack to make Traore’s return happen, but it could be well worth the effort. The winger has mainly been used as an impact substitute during his two seasons at Fulham so far, much like he was at Wolves, and he’d likely take on a similar role again.

Not only could the 29-year-old terrify defenders with his turn of pace and scintillating top speed as he always used to, but he’s also capable of playing as a right wing-back. Wolves need a reinforcement in that position as Nelson Semedo has now confirmed his departure following the expiry of his contract. Traore may lack some of the necessary defensive attributes, but his directness up the flank could make up for it, especially with the cover provided by operating with a back three.

Fulham’s stance awaits to be seen but Traore only has another 11 months left on his current deal and they could be tempted to cash in if suitable offers arrive. Traore’s current market value stands at around £7.7 million, as per Transfermarkt. If Wolves were to land him for a figure like that, it could be a bargain.

Semedo pens Wolves farewell message

As mentioned, Semedo has now announced he will not staying with Wolves. The Portugal international, Wanderers’ captain for much of last season, was offered a generous new four-year contract but has decided to move on to pastures new.

Posting on Instagram with a message to supporters, Semedo said: “The time has arrived and I want to thank you all for these five years, and tell you that you made grow so much as a athlete and as a person.

“I always tried my best every single day to represent this club on way it deserves and I made sure that I always left the picth with nothing else to give.

“Things took lots of time, but the club knows that I have always been transparent with them because I really want us to be on the level we must be.

“I met beautiful people that I will take in my heart and lead the club as a captain, I think you have no idea how proud and happy I am for that. I love you and I’ll miss you. Once a Wolf always a Wolf. Wolves ay we.”
