Wolves are set for a massive January transfer window with plenty of comings and goings expected, as they look to stay in the Premier League.
Vitor Pereira is now in charge of the Old Gold after taking over from Gary O’Neil in December. While the manager’s start at Molineux has been positive, relegation is still a real possibility.
Therefore, the January transfer window could be vital in turning Wolves’ fortunes around further.
A new defender is needed, while Pereira may be wanting to bring in his own players for the second half of the campaign.
