Transfer targets18 Jan 2027

Wolverhampton bid $18.0M for Conor Bradley

The offer went to Liverpool this week and it is theirs to answer. First bids are rarely meant to succeed; they are meant to find out how loud the door closes.

Transfer targets18 Jan 2027

Door shut on Ollie Watkins

Wolverhampton asked and Al-Hilal said no without discussing a figure. It is the least ambiguous answer in football and the one clubs most often come back to test.

Match16 Jan 2027

No end in sight to Wolverhampton's wait for a win

6 matches now without a victory, and the excuses have worn thinner than the patience. Somebody at Wolverhampton has to find a result from somewhere.

Transfer targets18 Jan 2027

Wolverhampton baulk at the price for Tyrick Mitchell

Crystal Palace wanted more than $3.1M and the board would not go there. Walked away, for now, which in a transfer window means until somebody blinks.

Market18 Jan 2027

Ipswich Town come back empty-handed

The bid was some way short and Wolverhampton did not need long over it. Nobody in the game reads a first refusal as the end of anything.

Squad18 Jan 2027

Tempers go at Wolverhampton

Luiz Henrique was at the centre of it, and by the time it was pulled apart there were three or four others involved. Training grounds are small places and long seasons make them smaller.

Squad18 Jan 2027

Kieran Trippier falls out with a teammate over standards

The oldest argument in any dressing room and the only one that is genuinely about football: one man thinks another is not putting enough in. It is also the row a manager privately does not mind having happened.

Match16 Jan 2027

A bad afternoon for Wolverhampton against Nottingham Forest

1‑2 to Nottingham Forest, and no complaints worth printing. The performance asked for nothing more than it got.

The dugout18 Jan 2027

André gets it from the manager

“Nobody here is above being told.” It was not said with a name attached, but the dressing room can count, and so can everybody who was listening.

Squad26 Oct 2026

José Sá stands alone

13 saves, and a scoreline the ten men in front of him had no right to. Goalkeepers only get noticed on the bad days; this was one of the other ones.

Squad26 Oct 2026

João Virgínia damages knee ligaments — 14 days out

The words a physio says slowly. 14 days is what the club will announce and everybody who has heard this diagnosis before knows the number is the least of it: the knee comes back before the player does.

Squad26 Oct 2026

Tempers go at Wolverhampton

Luiz Henrique was at the centre of it, and by the time it was pulled apart there were three or four others involved. Training grounds are small places and long seasons make them smaller.

Market26 Oct 2026

Jean-Ricner Bellegarde has his eye on Europe

It is not a grievance and it is not a demand: he wants to play continental football, and he has stopped hiding it. Whether Wolverhampton can give him that is a question about the club, not about him.

Squad26 Oct 2026

Kieran Trippier falls out with a teammate over standards

The oldest argument in any dressing room and the only one that is genuinely about football: one man thinks another is not putting enough in. It is also the row a manager privately does not mind having happened.

Match24 Oct 2026

Arsenal take the points off Wolverhampton

Beaten 1‑3, and beaten fairly. The manager kept his words short afterwards, which was probably wise.

The dugout26 Oct 2026

Joshua Stewart answers for it

“The supporters are entitled to be angry. So am I. We will put it right.” 1‑3, a manager saying the necessary things, and a dressing room that heard a different version of them.

Loan watch26 Oct 2026

Sam Johnstone’s loan is measured in nothing happening

7 clean sheets from 12 appearances at Bloemfontein Celtic. That is the whole of a goalkeeper’s job done properly, and it is being done a long way from the club that owns him.

The dugout26 Oct 2026

The plan did not have a place for André

Nobody at Wolverhampton is suggesting he is out of form. The manager simply wanted somebody with a different set of qualities for ninety specific minutes, and there is nothing a player can train to fix that.

Squad28 Sep 2026

The knee: Ashton Williams out for 35 days

35 days on the announcement, and a year of quiet, unwatched rehabilitation behind it. Wolverhampton lose a player for a season; he loses something harder to name.

Squad28 Sep 2026

José Sá stands alone

7 saves, and a scoreline the ten men in front of him had no right to. Goalkeepers only get noticed on the bad days; this was one of the other ones.

Match26 Sep 2026

The wait goes on for Wolverhampton

6 without a win now, and the ground has developed the special quiet of a crowd that expects the worst. One scrappy 1-0 would cure most of it; that is the maddening part.

Squad28 Sep 2026

A falling-out at Wolverhampton

Kieran Trippier and a teammate went at it, and not about football. Training grounds are small places and a long season makes them smaller.

Squad28 Sep 2026

Words at Wolverhampton training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Ladislav Krejčí is at the centre of it, and the squad will now find out whether the standard rises or the pair of them simply stop speaking.

The dugout28 Sep 2026

No hiding place for Sam Surridge

“I pick players who do the work. All of it.” No name was spoken; every camera still turned to Sam Surridge, and the manager let it.

Match26 Sep 2026

Wolverhampton rescue it on 95 minutes

Behind, and beaten by any honest reading, until minute 95. Fulham had the points in their pocket and a corner of the ground still believed, which is generally when it happens.

Player ratings28 Sep 2026

Nobody could get near Rodrigo Gomes

Successful dribbles: 15. Every time he got the ball somebody had to make a decision, and every time the decision was wrong.

Match26 Sep 2026

Honours even between Wolverhampton and Fulham

1‑1, and both dressing rooms will call it two points lost. A draw that asked plenty of questions and answered none of them.

Transfer targets31 Aug 2026

Mikel Merino is a medical away from Wolverhampton

The deal with Arsenal is done in every sense but the one that puts him on the pitch. Nothing goes wrong at this stage, except on the occasions when it does.

Match29 Aug 2026

A hiding for Wolverhampton

Beaten 2‑6 by Tottenham, and beaten everywhere it matters. The inquest starts on the training pitch on Monday morning.

Squad31 Aug 2026

9 saves: José Sá was the team

Some afternoons a goalkeeper is the whole of the defence. 9 saves, several of them the kind nobody expects to see made, and ten outfield players who owe him a drink.

Transfer targets31 Aug 2026

An offer of $6.2M for Jay Robinson

Wolverhampton have gone to Southampton with a bid, and the supporters have gone to the internet with an opinion about it. Whether either changes anything is up to the selling club.

Squad31 Aug 2026

A falling-out at Wolverhampton

Kieran Trippier and a teammate went at it, and not about football. Training grounds are small places and a long season makes them smaller.

Match29 Aug 2026

Nobody could stop scoring

8 goals. Both benches spent the second half looking at each other rather than at the pitch. Purists will complain about Wolverhampton and Tottenham in equal measure; everybody else had a wonderful time.

Transfer targets31 Aug 2026

Wolverhampton rebuffed over Kellen Fisher

Not now, not at any price the club was prepared to say out loud. Norwich City have kept their man, and Wolverhampton go back to a list with one name crossed off it.

The dugout31 Aug 2026

No hiding place for André

“I pick players who do the work. All of it.” No name was spoken; every camera still turned to André, and the manager let it.

Boardroom31 Aug 2026

Inquest at Wolverhampton

The manager kept them in and said what needed saying. A response is expected on Saturday, and if it does not come the questions move upstairs.
