Gary O’Neil opens door for Daniel Podence return, but winger could still leave
O’Neil took questions in his press conference after today’s game.
And he gave an update on the situation with Podence, who has not played for Wolves since the final home game of last season against Everton.
According to Express & Star journalist Nathan Judah, O’Neil has said today that he ‘will never shut the door on someone’ and that ‘all options are still on the table (Saudi/Qatar window open)’.

Clearly something has gone on behind the scenes, with O’Neil even saying recently that the winger does not share in Wolves’ goals for the season.
He didn’t secure a move to another club on deadline day, despite some speculation.
But there are still some transfer windows that are open, and he could well depart.
