Wolves suffered a disappointing 3-1 defeat to Crystal Palace at Selhurst Park, extending their losing streak to three games. Despite the loss, there was a notable positive to take away from the match: Jorgen Strand Larsen scored his 14th goal of the season, surpassing Raul Jimenez’s goal tally in his first season with the club.
The Norwegian striker has been a bright spot for Wolves this season, consistently working tirelessly to link play and create opportunities despite often being starved of service. His impressive goal tally is a testament to his dedication and skill, and it’s notable that none of his 14 goals have come from penalties.
Strand Larsen’s performance this season has cemented his position as one of the top strikers in the club, and with a permanent deal set for around £23 million this summer, he has proven himself to be a valuable asset for Wolves. The fee is a bargain, considering his ability to lead the line and score crucial goals for the team.
As Wolves look to the future, Strand Larsen is poised to take on an even more significant role, particularly with potential departures like Matheus Cunha. With his work rate and goal-scoring ability, Strand Larsen has shown that he is more than capable of thriving in a more prominent role. Hopefully, he can build on his impressive form next season and lead Wolves to success.
