In the race to sign promising young center-back Bastian Meupiyou from Nantes, Wolverhampton Wanderers have emerged as the frontrunners ahead of Tottenham Hotspur, Everton, and West Ham United.
Although Meupiyou has only featured in one senior game for Nantes, his potential as a future star has attracted attention from top clubs. Wolves’ substantial offer of £4.3 million has placed them in a strong position to secure the 18-year-old’s signature.
With Meupiyou recently omitted from Nantes’ squad, speculation of an impending move to Molineux has intensified. His reluctance to renew his contract with the French club further suggests that a transfer is likely.
The agreement of a €5 million transfer fee between Wolves and Nantes signals that the deal is nearing completion. Despite interest from Tottenham, it appears that Wolves will succeed in landing the talented defender.
While Spurs may be interested in Meupiyou, their current defensive lineup suggests that they may not pursue further additions before the transfer window closes. Wolves, on the other hand, are poised to secure the young talent and add depth to their squad.
