Wolves are about to announce the exit of Ruben Neves – and Max Kilman may not be far behind him, with Tottenham Hotspur keen on the defender.
Wanderers have been in the headlines for the past 24 hours or so because Neves is heading to Saudi Arabia.
The club reached a £47 million agreement with Al Hilal for his transfer.
It is a great deal for the club, amid concerns over FFP, with Neves having just one year left on his deal.
Neves is coming in for some criticism for his decision from neutrals. But has been offered a staggering amount of money and he could always come back to Europe in a couple of years.
But now it seems another Wolves player could be heading for the exit.
Wolves defender Max Kilman wanted by Tottenham Hotspur
According to Alasdair Gold, who is the Tottenham correspondent at football.london and therefore well informed, Kilman is a target for Spurs.
He says that Kilman is a player Spurs ‘have kept an eye on in recent seasons’. Apparently they greatly admire his ability on the ball.
But the north London giants also like Aymeric Laporte from Manchester City.
The Spain international is out of favour at the Etihad and could well be moving on this summer.
It has previously been reported that Kilman is a player that Wolves could potentially listen to offers for this summer.
It would be a shame to see Max Kilman leave Wolves, but he could fetch a pretty penny
It would be a shame to see Kilman leave Wolves. But Wolves need to raise funds and he is definitely a saleable asset.
His stock is relatively high at the moment, as a left-footed, ball-playing central defender. There aren’t many of these types of player that are of good quality and on the market.
So it’s no surprise Spurs are keen.
And Spurs are a team that have often played a back three in a recent times. Kilman, of course, has a decent amount of experience playing in a back three, as well as a four.
If he is to be sold like Neves, then hopefully Wolves are able to negotiate a good deal. Surely, Kilman would be worth at least £30 million in todays’ market.
