Wolves are on the verge of making their first summer signing, with reports suggesting that Fer Lopez could be the one to join the team. After interest from Wolves in Lopez was first reported a couple of days ago, it was revealed on Saturday that personal terms had been agreed, sparking excitement among fans.
With a focus on departures so far this summer, news of a potential incoming transfer was a welcome change for supporters. It is understood that Lopez would not be a direct replacement for Matheus Cunha, but would instead likely play as a right-sided number 10.
Negotiations with Celta Vigo are underway, with reports initially indicating a €40 million release clause for Lopez. However, recent reports have revealed that the player actually has two release clauses – one for €40 million and another for €20 million. This is due to a clause stipulated in his last contract with the club, maintaining a lower value from his time in the youth team.
If Wolves can secure a deal for Lopez at the lower release clause amount, it would be a significant boost for the team. With his potential and talent, Lopez could be a valuable addition to the squad as the club looks to strengthen this summer. Despite the frustrations of several departures, the prospect of new signings offers hope for the future.
