Wolves are in the best moment they’ve been in for a long time, after recording a sixth straight win in the Premier League.
Saturday saw Wolves comfortably beat Leicester City 3-0 at Molineux, and there were yet more scenes of jubilation after the full-time whistle.
Matheus Cunha starred against the Foxes, scoring one and providing two assists for Jorgen Strand Larsen and then Rodrigo Gomes.
At the moment, there is a lot of speculation surrounding Cunha, who is seemingly set to join Manchester United.
But he won’t be the only one leaving this summer.
One player who has been attracting attention for a while now is Rayan Ait-Nouri – and former striker turned pundit Troy Deeney reckons he could be looking to leave this summer.

Troy Deeney says Rayan Ait-Nouri is playing for a transfer away from Wolves
Ait-Nouri is now the defender with the most goal contributions in the Premier League this season.
The Algerian made it 11 with his assist against Leicester, and such numbers are only going to place him in the shop window ahead of the summer.
But for Deeney though, the 23-year-old was playing in such a way to try and attract attention ahead of the next window, believing the player has really locked in lately.
Selecting Ait-Nouri in his latest Premier League Team of the Week, he told BBC Sport: “It looks to me like he is playing for a move, he looks focused and has the right mindset.
“His assist for the goal was fantastic but he just continually gets up and down the field.
“There are only a couple of games left and he still has that burning desire to have an impact.”
Deeney also selected Ait-Nouri in his Team of the Week after Wolves’ win over Tottenham, and is clearly impressed with what the wing-back is doing at the moment.
Wolves may already have Ait-Nouri replacement
Ait-Nouri could well leave Wolves this summer, after what would be five years at the club.
It seems like the summer would be a natural end for Ait-Nouri at Molineux, with his value high.
It would be a big blow to lose such a creative player.
But Molineux News was recently told there is a good chance of Hugo Bueno replacing Ait-Nouri at Wolves next season, and these suggestions have now also been made elsewhere.
And following the fresh suggestions, Wolves fans do fear Ait-Nouri could finally leave this summer.
Bueno has been out on loan at Feyenoord this season, impressing with the Dutch giants and also having experience of playing in the Champions League.
Potentially, Wolves could sell Ait-Nouri, bring Bueno back, and use the sale money to sign players for other positions. Wolves will surely need new forwards, and there could even be scope for a new goalkeeper.
