Leo Bonatini hasn’t scored a Premier League goal all season for Wolverhampton Wanderers but has still reportedly caught Galatasaray’s eye.
It seems that fans of Wolverhampton Wanderers have lost patience with Leo Bonatini. That will happen, after all, when you’re a striker who hasn’t scored a league goal in 30 games, a run stretching back to December 2017.
According to Fotospor, Bonatini could be offered a route out of Molineux in the January transfer window with reigning Turkish Super Lig champions Galatasaray keen to sign a striker to take the pressure off Erin Derdiyok.
They are reported to have sent scouts to watch the 24-year-old Brazilian as Wolves drew 1-1 with Arsenal at the Emirates on Sunday. The trip was a bit of a waste, however, as Bonatini never made it off the bench.
And while Wolves fans will always be thankful for the role Bonatini played in their Championship title winning season of 2017/18, the £5 million man scoring 12 goals in the first half of the campaign, the Black Country giants have moved onwards and upwards.
The goal-shy striker has been left behind. With their Chinese billionaire owners willing to invest heavily and with super-agent Jorge Mendes in their corner, Wolves can simply do better than Bonatini these days.
