Wolves eye 'remarkable' £10m Premier League winger as potential Matheus Cunha replacement

Wolverhampton Wanderers have made only one signing so far in the transfer window, Fer Lopez from Celta Vigo for £19.5 million. This lack of further new players is causing slight concern among fans, especially as pre-season has started and potential recruits are missing valuable preparation time. Despite acknowledging the need for a summer rebuild, the club's level of incoming activity has been disappointing thus far. However, there is a report suggesting Wolves are closing in on a couple of deals, offering hope for imminent good news.

Wolves are reportedly showing interest in Crystal Palace winger Jesurun Rak-Sakyi as a potential new signing. The 22-year-old spent last season on loan at Sheffield United, scoring seven goals in 35 appearances. He is said to be on Wolves' shortlist to replace Matheus Cunha, who joined Manchester United at the start of the window. Rak-Sakyi is reportedly available for £10 million, with Rangers also interested but potentially deterred by the price. Crystal Palace manager Roy Hodgson has previously praised Rak-Sakyi's maturity and believes he has a big future.

While Rak-Sakyi is considered an exciting talent and an England U21 international, the report cautions that he should not be viewed as a direct replacement for Cunha. Cunha was a proven performer who regularly contributed goals and assists. His replacement, it is argued, should ideally be of a similar age and level of experience, rather than a 22-year-old with limited Premier League minutes (212 minutes).
