Wolverhampton Wanderers are reportedly battling PSG for the La Liga midfielder.
It seems that pretty much half of the Premier League have been linked with Stanislav Lobotka this month. And you can now add Wolverhampton Wanderers to the list.
According to Paris United, Wolves have joined the race to sign the highly-rated Celta Vigo midfielder; a player who PSG have also allegedly lined up to replace Adrien Rabiot at the Parc des Princes.
Lobotka, a combative and energetic Slovakian international who has taken La Liga by storm in the last 18 months, has a £45 million release clause in his contract but it is understood that £26 million could be enough to convince Celta to cash in.
Wolves are not short of funds but central midfield is not exactly an area that is crying out for improvement, given that Nuno Espirito Santo can call upon Ruben Neves, Joao Moutinho, Morgan Gibbs-White and the suddenly impressive Leander Dendoncker.
The report adds that both Watford and Bournemouth are interested in Lobotka, who could force them to shatter their transfer records to bring him in.
Calciomercato, meanwhile, claimed on Friday that Leicester City were planning to make a £23 million bid.
