Wolves fans have been reacting to the news that Meritan Shabani has penned a new deal at the club.
The German midfielder has agreed fresh terms that will keep him at the club until the summer of 2023.
The 21-year-old has established himself with the U23s since coming to the club in 2019 from Bayern Munich.
The promising star made his first-team debut for the club in the Carabao Cup win over Reading shortly after his arrival, but his hopes of a quick progression and a continued stay in the first-team were dashed because of injury.
Shabani suffered an ACL injury which put him out of action for the remainder of the 2019/20 season in what was a huge blow for the young talent.
He retured to full fitness for the 2020/21 season and has started strongly for James Collinsโ side, and his form has now been rewarded with a new contract.
With three goals and three assists so far, Shabani has really impressed, with Scott Sellars saying of him (Wolves official): โWe know how he unfortunately got his cruciate injury when he made his first-team debut last year, but through his rehabilitation period, his attitude has been fantastic.
โIn his performances for the U23s since he returned from injury, he has really started settling back into the Meritan we all know.โ
On social media, some Wolves fans have been reacting to news of the club extending Shabaniโs contract, with some actually vouching for his promotion to the first-team:
This is the kind of player that needs to be given a chance. Show the old guard that they arenโt untouchable. Especially after that showing on Saturday.
