Wolverhampton Wanderers are reportedly keen on signing the Stoke City man.

According to Turkish media outlet Fanatik, Wolves are lining up a €25 million (£22 million) bid for Stoke City midfield ace Badou Ndiaye, and what a superb signing the Senegal ace could turn out to be for Nuno Espirito Santo’s side.

The Portuguese already has an incredibly strong group of players at his disposal at Molineux, but if they are to challenge for a top 10 finish in the Premier League this season, he must add some real quality to his ranks.

One particular area where Nuno will want to strengthen is his central midfield department, and the addition of a powerful ball-winner to compliment the skills of Ruben Neves will be of paramount importance this summer.

Badou Ndiaye of Stoke City is challenged by Aaron Ramsey of Arsenal during the Premier League match between Arsenal and Stoke City at Emirates Stadium on April 1, 2018 in London, England.

The Stoke man certainly fits the bill.

The 27-year-old plays with a certain kind of tenacity that would make him the ideal addition to the Wolves squad, and he would provide them with far more rigidity in the middle of the park.

Ndiaye joined the Potters from Galatasaray in January, for a fee believed to be worth in the region of £14 million, and he proved to be a real hit at the BET365 Stadium.

The 17-capped Senegal international would perfectly compliment Neves in Wolves’ engine room, and his arrival at Molineux would undoubtedly take the Black Country outfit to another level entirely.
