Champions League club to test Wolves’ resolve for Andre as price tag floated

Andre is one of the Wolves players who will almost certainly leave if the Old Gold get relegated.

Rob Edwards has been told that Andre is one of just three ‘very good’ players at the club and, with Championship football likely, is sure to want to play at a higher level.

The Brazilian midfielder has plenty of suitors, with Manchester United and multiple clubs in Brazil recently linked with Andre.

Wolves maintain a hard ‘no selling’ stance, but the player himself may be tempted to cut his stint short.

Now, a side currently in the Champions League is interested in taking the central midfielder from Wolves in January.

Is Andre unsellable in January?🤔

“He is one of the best number sixes in the league, there’s no doubt about that.”

Wolves may face a battle to keep hold of their top stars in January despite Rob Edwards insisting he has not been told that will be the case.

Andre is the latest player to be linked with a move away from the club, with reports circulating about his next potential destination.

Turkish journalist Kagan Dursun has shared that Andre is on Galatasaray’s shortlist ahead of the January window.

Dursun states that the Turkish giants view Andre as an opportunistic target due to Wolves’ situation and that they are prepared to pay €25-30 million (£22-26 million) for him.

Galatasaray are currently in the Champions League and are placed in 18th position, handing them a play-off spot for the round of 16.

That will certainly be an appealing prospect for the Wolves midfielder.

Andre is also not the only Wanderer getting interest from Turkey, as Emmanuel Agbadou has been strongly linked with Besiktas.

Even if Wolves are destined for relegation, and even if Andre stays past January, the Wanderers simply cannot let Andre leave for £22-26 million.

The Brazilian midfielder boasts immense quality, and figures upwards of at minimum £30 million should be what they are looking for.

It remains to be seen what happens in the January window, but Rob Edwards seems confident that the likes of Andre and Joao Gomes will stay until the end of the season.

Galatasaray may approach Wolves, and that resolve will be tested. But as seen with Jorgen Strand Larsen in the summer, Jeff Shi is prepared to do so.
