Wolves The club’s strength was strengthened by just one signing during the January transfer window, bringing Emmanuel Agbado to the club from Rennes Victor PereiraDefense options along the way.

Last week, Old Golf also looked close to signing Manu Silva, but fell through at the last minute. Benfica hijacked the move.

With just over a week left before the winter window closes, the manager is aiming to sign one or two more players before the window closes, especially with Molineux finishing bottom of the league. Premier League table.

More importantly, however, Wolves will be keen to retain several key players for survival purposes.

Left-back Rayan Ait-Nouri is a player who attracts interest whenever the transfer window opens, but that’s not to be the case. Matthews Cunha Who has many admirers.

The Brazilian has been one of the few bright spots for Old Gold this season and there’s no doubt that losing him at this stage would almost certainly lead to misery in the coming months.

Wolves must keep Matthews Cunha

Cunha made 21 Premier League appearances for the Midlands side Scored ten goals Also registered four assists. In fact, of the 32 top-flight goals Wolves have scored throughout the 2024/25 season, Cunha has been directly involved in 44% of them.

It’s enough to prove how important he is to their cause of staying in the league, but Pereira will have a hard time convincing him, especially when there are bigger clubs ready to stretch their financial muscles and cash in on the former Atletico Madrid player .

According to Sky Sports, Nottingham Forest is ready Cunha was brought to the club with a club-record offer, with reports also pointing to Arsenal as another team considering making an offer.

A fee of £60m could be enough to tempt Pereira to sell this month, although that doesn’t give him much time to find a replacement.

have Earned over £90m The club sold Pedro Neto and Max Kilman last summer and, despite interest, is in no rush to offload the centre-forward.

this £60,000 per week The talisman will remain at the club unless something unusual happens in the coming days, which Pereira will try to avoid.

However, one player he should actively pursue a move to is Fabio Silva, who is currently on loan at Las Palmas in Spain.

Wolves could sell Fabio Silva

According to TEAMtalk, Atletico Madrid showed interest After signing Silva this summer, they may consider reaching an agreement with Wolves over a potential transfer.

Atletico beat Las Palmas earlier this season but Silva’s performances impressed Diego Simeone and the club have kept an eye on him ever since.

He impressed for the makeshift side throughout the La Liga season, scoring the winner against Barcelona while also scoring in the first minute against Real Madrid, although that game ended in defeat end.

A lot will depend on what Wolves want from Silva, as Pereira should be keen to get him out of the team as soon as possible, that’s for sure.

Fabio Silva’s Wolves stats

All of Europe surprised when Wolves splurge The contract value is up to 35 million pounds In 2020, he was 18 years old.

considering he has played A total of 21 senior students The signing was indeed a big gamble just a few games ahead of a move to England.

Silva only scored four times for the senior team in his first two seasons at Molineux, failing to live up to the hype surrounding his exorbitant transfer fee.

It was clear that his future was away from the club, with him spending the entire 2022/23 season out on loan, playing for Anderlecht and PSV Eindhoven.

He took a big step away from the Premier League; Scored 11 goals and 5 goals With both teams’ respective performances, it looks like Wolves are ready to cash in on the forward.

He was given a second chance at the club by Gary O’Neill but once again he failed to shine and was loaned out to Glasgow rangers Mid-term 2023/24.

His form in Glasgow didn’t quite go to plan either, scoring just six goals for the Gers in the second half of the season and failing to impress the demanding Ibrox fans.

former rangers player Derek Ferguson criticizes The striker said: “Silva brings you absolutely nothing. There has to be a clause in his contract that requires him to start every game because in the last five or six games he has been very poor.”

It didn’t take long for him to move on again, joining Las Palmas last summer, but he looks to have settled well into life in La Liga. As mentioned, the 22-year-old has scored against two of the biggest teams in the country and could be on the verge of a move to Atletico Madrid.

It would be wise for Pereira to consider any offer, especially considering the Portuguese youngster currently earns £80,000 per week At Molineux.

To put this into perspective, Silva earns £20,000 more per week than Cunha. It’s obvious who deserves the higher wages given their role at the club.

If Cunha stays at Old Trafford then they will have a good chance of avoiding relegation to the Championship and could potentially accept an offer in the summer, when they will have more time to find a replacement.

Selling Silva would allow Pereira to raise some funds to help speed up the process, and his current form at Las Palmas would help aid the cause.

He just 18 months leftHis deal with the Midlands has been cancelled, suggesting this summer is their last chance to sell him for a decent fee.
