Wolves have been linked with signing goalkeeper Bernd Leno.

Wolves have received a potential boost in their efforts to sign Bernd Leno.

German publication Fussball Transfers reported this week that Wolves have made contact with Bayer Leverkusen over signing the goalkeeper.

Now their chances have been helped, with Leverkusen signing a new goalkeeper of their own.

Bayer announced this morning they have signed Lukas Hradecky, a Finnish international who joined after playing more than 100 games for Eintracht Frankfurt over the past three seasons.

This now pushes Leno towards the exit, with Hradecky possessing the quality and experience to be Leverkusen’s number one.

Wolves have been linked with several new goalkeepers since returning to the Premier League, and potentially replacing number one John Ruddy.

Ruddy joined on a free transfer from Norwich City last summer and starred, but is 31, five years older than potential signing Bernd Leno.
