Wolves are looking to strengthen this summer, and the club reportedly have eyes on a Brazilian midfielder.
Wanderers have ended up having a very comfortable end to the season thanks to a magnificent impact from Vitor Pereira.
Wolves were in a world of trouble at the end of 2024.
But Pereira has come in and totally turned things around, and the mood at Molineux is currently better than it’s been for quite some time.
Fans now want to see Pereira back by Fosun this summer.
The hope is that the owners will see what Pereira has done in such a short space of time, and perhaps release the purse strings a little.
And that will need to happen, if Wolves are going to be a genuine contender to sign Gabriel Sara this summer.
Wolves interested in Gabriel Sara
It’s been reported by Caught Offside that a number of clubs have scouted Galatasaray midfielder Gabriel Sara ahead of the summer transfer window.
Sara joined the Turkish giants last summer from Norwich City, and has taken his game to another level in recent times.
Gala would prefer not to sell this summer, having only bought him just over a year ago.
But it’s been suggested Sara could still leave the club this summer, with the player having an approximate valuation of £34 million.
Sara, a teammate of former Wolves midfielder Mario Lemina of course, would apparently be open to returning to English football.
But Wolves will not have it easy to sign Sara, with a number of other clubs from the Premier League keen.
As well as Wolves, there’s interest from Aston Villa, Manchester City, Nottingham Forest, Everton.
Sara isn’t the only midfielders on the club’s radar ahead of the summer – Wolves have also been credited with an interest in Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall.
Johnny Cardoso is another player Wolves have eyes on, but the club seemingly keen to further strengthen their engine room.
Sara may want to join Brazilian contingent at Wolves
If there is any degree of truth in the £34 million asking price then this move will be very unlikely for Wolves.
It’s been suggested the maximum fee Wolves may spend on a single player will be less than £20 million.

It remains to be seen, but if Gala would sell for less, then perhaps Sara – dubbed ‘an outstanding player’ by former Norwich boss David Wagner last year (via Pink Un) – might fancy a switch to Molineux.
There is a strong Brazilian contingent at Wolves right now, made up of Matheus Cunha, Joao Gomes, Andre and Pedro Lima.
And in addition, there are several other Portuguese speakers, which may further appeal to Sara.
