Jorgen Strand Larsen’s future was one of the biggest talking points during the summer transfer window, with speculation over whether he would stay at Molineux.
The striker has now ended the uncertainty surrounding his future by signing a new deal that commits him to the club until 2030.
Larsen’s new deal doesn’t include a release clause, meaning Wolves have full control over his future.
The Norwegian’s long-term commitment gives the club’s attack stability, securing a starter up front and a dependable source of goals for the foreseeable future.
Teammates, Fer Lopez and Santiago Bueno, joined the Molineux faithful in reacting positively to Larsen’s new deal.

Wolves shared Larsen’s contract extension on social media, with fans reacting positively and showing their delight.
Both Lopez and Bueno left Larsen encouraging messages following the announcement of his new deal.
Lopez said: “Congrats bro”, accompanied by a clapping hands emoji, showing his support for his teammate.
Bueno reacted with two orange heart emojis, clearly highlighting his approval and excitement over Larsen’s long-term commitment to the club.
The forward played a crucial role under Vitor Pereira last season, netting 14 goals in the Premier League and cementing his position as their first-choice striker.
Larsen has also spoken out about how Wolves can solve their goalscoring troubles, with the 25-year-old set to make his return from injury.
How Strand Larsen can get Wolves out of the relegation zone
Larsen pushed for a move to Newcastle, as he thought that this kind of opportunity may never present itself again.
However, now that his future is no longer up in the air, he can focus on returning to the pitch and providing Wolves with an outlet in attack.
His movement and proven goalscoring record under Pereira will help unlock stubborn defences and create more space for the likes of Tolo Arokodare.
With new signings like Lopez and Jhon Arias gradually settling in, Larsen’s link-up play could make Wolves’ forward line much more unpredictable.
When the striker makes his return from injury, it won’t come as a surprise to the Molineux faithful if he picks up where he left off, with his comeback potentially helping Wolves slowly climb up the table.
