According to The Chronicle, Wolverhampton Wanderers are interested in signing Newcastle United striker Aleksandar Mitrovic this summer.

Wolves have secured promotion to the Premier League by winning the Championship title, and boss Nuno Espirito Santo will be keen to add new faces to try and stay in the top flight.

With decisions to make over loan duo Benik Afobe and Leo Bonatini, changes could be on the way in attack for Wolves, and another striker has now been linked with a move to Molineux.

The Chronicle report that Wolves are one of the clubs interested in signing Newcastle United striker Aleksandar Mitrovic, who has been starring for Fulham since his January loan move.

Mitrovic, 23, has hit a stunning 11 goals in 15 games for the Cottagers following his deadline day move, and he could yet fire Fulham to promotion themselves.

Despite his goals, the Serbian international appears to have no future at St. James’ Park, and it’s claimed that the Magpies want £20million for his signature this summer.

Wolves may be willing to pay that this summer, and seemingly won’t find any resistance from Newcastle – but if Fulham go up too, Slavisa Jokanovic may be confident of keeping his compatriot at Craven Cottage.
