Fulham are reportedly keen on the experienced striker but Wolves are crying out for a forward.
When Fosun International completed their takeover of Wolves in the summer, they announced almost immediately that promotion to the Premier League was at the top of their list of priorities. Therefore, it is fair to say their first year in charge has not exactly gone to plan.
As it stands, Wolves are just five points above the drop zone while their plight has not been helped by the absence of a reliable goalscorer, despite their £20 million bid for Brazilian forward Anderson Talisca (above) displaying their new-found financial muscle, as reported by the Daily Mail.
Therefore, if they are to progress next season, they should start by challenging Fulham for the signature of Nigerian forward Emmanuel Emenike.
According to Get West London, the 29-year-old, who impressed leading the line for The Super Eagles at the 2014 World Cup, wants to leave Fenerbahce due to a lack of game time and could be on his way to London a year after a loan spell at West Ham United.
However, although he did not exactly set the world alight in his five-month stint at Upton Park, Emenike has all the attributes to be a success in the Championship, namely natural pace and significant upper-body strength.
Furthermore, his age and the fact he has just one year left on his contract at Fener means he could be picked up on the cheap in the summer, meaning Wolves would not be forced to rely on the likes of Jon Dadi Bodvarsson or Nouha Dicko, the duo scoring just four goals between them this season.
