There is no doubt that ancient gold has a difficult battle to stay in the elite, but some transfers would certainly help help their fight for survival. They were recently linked to a single defender.
Wolves target a new defender
The player in question here is Austria and the central rear of the RC lens, Kevin Dano. The 26 -year -old impressed during his stay with the French outfit and could now leave the club before the end of the January transfer window.

According to a telegraph reportWolves would be the main side leading the race to sign in ino. We think he was a transfer target for the club “for more than 12 months”, and they could finally get their man.

If the former Gold Dance sign, which earns £ 23,000 per week, According to CaplogyIt could be a perfect sheet for the back of the Rayan Ait-Nouri left wing. The Algerian seems ready to stay in Molinine this season despite the links, With Manchester United showing interests in the Algerian defender.
The 23 -year -old was crucial for wolves this season and has three goals and five assists in 22 games in the upper flight. This includes two assists in a 2-2 draw from his home against Tottenham.
Even if he is on a right foot, the Austrian could still line up on the left side of the back of the Wolves, which could still release the number three of the Wolves.
With the defensive consciousness and speed of DANC, which can reach up to 33.3 km / hThis means that he can cover the spaces that AT-Norui could leave if he plays essentially as an addicted, which may mean that wolves can create more scorer opportunities.
