Wolverhampton Wanderers transfers, latest news, rumours and gossip: Live updates, goals and highlights

Vitor Pereira has made it clear how important Jorgen Strand Larsen is to Wolves but stopped short of guaranteeing that the Norwegian striker would remain at the club this summer amid reports of interest from Newcastle.

“He’s a very important player for us. I never talk with him about it. He’s our player. When I watch him on the training, he’s committed with everybody, committed with the team. He’s a fighter. He likes to win. He’s preparing himself to play tomorrow.”

Asked if Wolves could afford to lose a key player between now and the end of the transfer window, Pereira added: “I don’t know. The market is the market. If the window is open, the players can come and the players can leave. I believe this is possible.”

With Jackson Tchatchoua having arrived from Hellas Verona, Wolves are targeting at least two more signings before the close of the transfer window and Pereira says that he is confident that the squad will be strong enough to compete once the dust settles.

“The club is working to help us because they know what we need since the beginning. They are working and I believe that we can bring the positions that we need to have competition inside the group.

“I believe that we will have a good team. We are in a process to build our way to play because we have different players this season.

“Some of them, we lost some of them from the first 11. This is time to rebuild the things, the behaviours, to understand, to connect everybody. Of course, we know what we are doing.

“We know what is in our minds for the future. They are working very well in the way that I like. Because of that, I’m positive.”
