Wolves fans are growing frustrated with the lack of business being carried out in the January transfer window.
The Wanderers are currently inside the relegation places by a point, yet the only signing Wolves have made is centre-back Emmanuel Agbadou from Reims.
There are just five days remaining for Vitor Pereira to complete the rest of his business, with Wolves eyeing further three additions, two of which could be on loan.
Pereira is focused on signing a centre-back and midfielder as his priorities while a forward player is on the agenda.
Wolves are pushing hard to sign Kevin Danso, the talented defender from Ligue 1 side RC Lens, while the Old Gold have also held talks with Volodymyr Brazhko.
Brazhko is a defensive midfielder from Dynamo Kyiv, and he isn’t the only player they’ve approached.
Wolves fail in approach to sign Real Betis star Sergi Altimira
According to Thursday’s edition of ABC Sevilla, as relayed by Sport Witness, Wolves have failed in their approach to sign Real Betis midfielder Sergi Altimira.
The 23-year-old, who is wanted by multiple Premier League clubs, is held in high regard by manager Manuel Pellegrini.
The former Manchester City boss wants to keep Altimira, who has been lauded as a ‘special’ talent, having established himself as a key cog in the Betis midfield.
Altimira has played 30 times in all competitions this term, flourishing as a box-to-box midfielder, or even at the base.
Six of those appearances came in the Europa Conference League where Betis are 15th in the table heading into the final two matches.
Interestingly, the Spanish playmaker was once on Barcelona’s books after coming through the La Masia academy, possessing elite level pedigree.
At this stage, though, it appears Wolves won’t experience a slice of that after seeing their first approach rejected so late on in the window.
Midfield isn’t the biggest priority for Wolves
Pereira wants to shape his Wolves squad with players that fit his philosophy, perhaps seeing Brazhko and Altimira as options who improve their midfield.
That being said, signing a centre-back is arguably their most pressing concern as the transfer window edges closer to being shut, and Danso is their top priority.
Wolves are still leaking goals for fun, and although Agbadou has settled in well, Pereira needs someone to replace Matt Doherty at centre-back.
Arguably, the Old Gold also need a difference maker in attack. Matheus Cunha looked disinterested against Arsenal amid transfer speculation, and the Brazilian being off-colour is detrimental.
Wolves could do with another goal scorer in their ranks having failed to find the net in three of their previous four matches.
