Transfer targets

Wolverhampton baulk at the price for Jérémy Doku

Manchester City wanted more than $36.8M and the board would not go there. Walked away, for now, which in a transfer window means until somebody blinks.

Transfer targets

Door shut on Boubacar Kamara

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

Wolverhampton say no — this time

The offer from Oldham Athletic for Enso González was heard out and sent back the same day. First bids are rarely meant to succeed; they are meant to find out how loudly the door closes.

Squad

Hwang Hee-Chan in a row with a teammate

It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at Wolverhampton this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Squad

Wolverhampton lose André

14 days, the medical staff say, and medical staff are optimists by profession. The team sheet will look wrong without him.

Boardroom

Wolverhampton promote Harry Henderson from within

The academy exists for exactly this morning. Harry Henderson has come through every age group the club runs and has now been handed a senior number, and the people who coached him at twelve will be the proudest in the building.

John Walker steps up from the Wolverhampton academy

There is no fee, no unveiling and no agent on the steps. John Walker has been at this club since he was a boy and is now, formally, one of the first-team squad — which for a local readership beats any signing of any size.

In brief
