Wolverhampton Wanderers have been linked with a move for the Feyenoord striker.

Wolverhampton Wanderers could struggle to land alleged striker target Nicolai Jorgensen, according to the player himself.

The Mirror reports the Feyenoord star is being looked at by Wolves, as they ‘try to bolster their attacking options’.

The speculation comes five months after Jorgensen was linked with an £18 million move to Everton, courtesy of Danish publication, BT.

And addressing those rumours in an interview with ELF Voetbal, the 26-year-old suggested he will not be going anywhere fast.

“When I signed my contract with Feyenoord last year, I had no intention to leave after one or two years,” Jorgensen is quoted as saying. “I’m not someone who necessarily wants to leave for the Premier League to discuss a successful career.

“I’m happy here. I’m infected by the Feyenoord virus, and will hard to try to keep the level of last season.”

Jorgensen scored 21 goals to fire Feyenoord to the Eredivisie title last season – his first at De Kuip – and has three in 11 outings this term.

However, with ambitious Wolves flying under new boss Nuno Espirito Santo, it’s not impossible the Dane could change his mind should an offer arrive from Molineux.

Wolves were thwarted in their attempt to sign another Dutch-based striker, PSV Eindhoven’s Jurgen Locadia, in August.

Can Wolves convince Jorgensen to join them?
