Wolves fans are desperate to see a glimpse of new signing David Moller Wolfe after the left-back completed his transfer to Molineux.
Wolves signed Moller Wolfe for £10m from Dutch side AZ Alkmaar, making the Norwegian Vitor Pereira’s third signing of the summer.
The news came as music to fans’ ears as pressure is building around Wolves’ hierarchy to bolster the manager’s squad.
Moller Wolfe replenishes the stability and skill lost as a result of Rayan Ait-Nouri’s transfer to Manchester City, but how long will supporters have to wait to see the defender in action?

When David Moller Wolfe will join the Wolves squad
Moller Wolfe is already rated highly at Wolves, as his international teammate Jorgen Strand Larsen played a role in bringing the 23-year-old to Molineux.
The dynamic wing-back will fit seamlessly into Pereira’s system, being a strong defender and an attacking asset, recording 11 goal contributions last season.
His move brings some long-overdue uplifting transfer news to Wolves, with fans set to get a glimpse of the new signing in the coming days.
Express and Star reporter Liam Keen revealed the club’s plans to integrate Moller Wolfe into the team once the squad returns from Spain, confirming that he will not travel to join his new teammates.
“He’s not going to come out to Spain, but he is going to be with the team next week when they’re back, from Tuesday onwards.”
Another interesting stance came from the Wolves expert, who predicted that Moller Wolfe will start the opening day clash with Manchester City at Molineux.
“I’d expect him to start against City,” Keen said.
“He’s probably got enough time, provided he’s fit. I think he will probably be in a position to start.”
Though an Ait-Nouri replacement was always going to come in, it’s a blow for Hugo Bueno, who, upon returning from a fantastic loan spell, could return to the position he left in last summer.
Decision to make about Bueno
In ordinary circumstances, the return of Bueno paired with the arrival of Moller Wolfe would be celebrated as a huge boost to Pereira’s squad depth.
The issue lies in the fact that Bueno wants regular first-team football, which is a fair demand after impressing as a starter at Feyenoord.
It’s well documented that Feyenoord want to sign Bueno, and now, the chance might just arise.
Wolves’ friendlies against Girona and Celta Vigo hold even more importance for the Spaniard, who is playing for his future, whether that be at Molineux or elsewhere.
