Blinksportsnews247Wolves and Gary O’Neil have several restrictions during this month’s transfer window. The club needed to turn a profit of £80 million during the summer transfer window of the previous year in order to ensure that they complied with the Premier League Profit and Sustainability Rules.
They made it, helped along by the well-publicized exits of Matheus Nunes and Ruben Neves, but they’re still “sailing close to the wind”.
Even with these limitations, Wolves can still conduct commerce in a few different ways. Two options are to reinvest money made from future sales and to sign players on an initial loan with an option or obligation to buy, deferring payments until a later accounting period. Wolves, however, have not been able to do the latter and have instead been loaning out players such as Fabio Silva, Sasa Kalajdzic, and Goncalo Guedes.
Rather, Fosun has asked the club’s hiring managers to “discover treasures from the less expensive end of the market,” and according to a story on Tuesday, they might have discovered one.
Amidst Man City’s interest, Wolves are considering Bergvall.
Wolves are reportedly interested in Djurgarden’s 17-year-old Lucas Bergvall, according to talkSPORT. Although the Midlands team is reportedly “keen” to pursue the budding star, they will have to contend with some formidable opposition.
Bergvall is also “tracking” Manchester City, the defending Premier League winners, and Barcelona, who hopes to sign him as well. To defeat two teams of that calibre, Wolves will need to put together a pitching performance of extraordinary calibre.
“Superb” Already, Bergvall is shattering records.
Midfielder Bergvall has been called “one of the biggest talents in Scandinavia” by journalist Maxi Angelo. He is also considered a “superb product” and “one of the most talented teenagers” in the region by football talent scout Jacek Kulig.
At the end of the previous winter window, Djurgarden paid €900k to recruit him from Brommapojkarna. While that may not seem like much to Premier League fans, it was the club’s second-highest outlay in history and their largest in over 20 years.
He played in 25 Allsvenskan games during his rookie campaign with the team, starting 11 of them, including five straight at the end of the campaign (during which he scored his first two goals). He played nearly 10 times as many minutes as the next-best player in his age group and was the only player in the division born in 2006 to start a game.
He has already achieved international notoriety, as evidenced by Sweden giving him his debut earlier this month in a friendly victory against Estonia. At 17 years, 11 months, and 10 days, he is the youngest player to play for the senior team in the modern era and the second-youngest player to appear for the team in the twenty-first century, behind Alexander Isak of Newcastle (17 years, 3 months, and 18 days).
Bo Andersson, the sports director of Djurgarden, stated last month that the team has already been in “contact” with Barcelona regarding a potential move, although they haven’t gone as far as to discuss a price. He may easily repay the £8.5 million price tag over the course of a lengthy career at Molineux.
