Wolves could have a max exodus of players leaving Molineux this summer, depending on whether they retain their Premier League status.
Vitor Pereira’s men currently have a five-point buffer on the bottom three following their defeat against Fulham last week.
Up next is a huge showdown against Everton, who have pulled away from the relegation dogfight under the experienced David Moyes.
Wolves will be without talisman Matheus Cunha, who is set to miss three matches after lashing out on Milos Kerkez on Saturday and receiving a red card.
Cunha is wanted by multiple big clubs after scoring 15 goals in all competitions. With a £62.5 million release clause that teams can activate in the summer, fans accept that he’s on his way out of Molineux.
However, in another transfer window that promises several sales, Wolves supporters have had their say on one other star.

Wolves fans want Boubacar Traore to leave Molineux
Midfielder Boubacar Traore is someone who could be on the chopping block once the season draws to a close.
Traore was close to joining Feyenoord in 2024, but a long-term injury sustained against Burnley prevented the Malian from completing his move.
The 23-year-old has recently returned to Pereira’s squad and made his first appearance since August at the weekend as Wolves lost to Bournemouth on penalties.
Traore played 34 minutes of that contest but unfortunately missed the decisive spotkick, which saw his side exit the FA Cup.
It wasn’t the happiest return to action for the midfield powerhouse, and he’s already attracting interest ahead of the summer, with Wolves fans agreeing he should be sold.
“Get rid and release £55k per week. Waste of money,” one fan wrote.
“Accept any bid north of £5M. He’s been useless,” another harshly stated, while a third followed: “Lage panic buy. Let him go.”
Barely played for us so far

“Always struck me that the sense was he’ll do well when he’s fit… But fitness never came and we never got a proper look at him. Not sure he’s particularly technically competent and certainly not worth £55k a week, if that’s true,” a fifth commented.
“Nowhere near good enough!! Just a headless chicken when he’s on the pitch,” someone exclaimed while a seventh said: “If we keep Andre and Gomes he will hardly play.”
Sell

Wolves highest earners
Traore, who was once dubbed ‘special’, earns a staggering £55k-per-week according to Capology, and this makes him the sixth highest earner among the Wolves squad.
| Wolves highest earners | Weekly Wage |
| Goncalo Guedes | £90,000 |
| Pablo Sarabia | £90,000 |
| Matheus Cunha | £90,000 |
| Nelson Semedo | £80,000 |
| Hwang Hee-chan | £70,000 |
| Boubacar Traore | £55,000 |
The three highest earners, Goncalo Guedes, Pablo Sarabia and Cunha, could all leave Molineux this summer, and Traore could join them.
Currently, the Mali international doesn’t warrant the wage being paid, and there are far better options in midfield, namely Joao Gomes, Andre and Marshall Munetsi.
