Wolves are showing interest in Valencia centre-back Mouctar Diakhaby, report French newspaper L’Equipe.

Valencia signed Diakhaby from Lyon last summer for just 15 million Euros.

He has had a mixed season in Spain, making 16 league starts, but he also managed three in the Champions League and six in the Europa League.

Diakhaby has a release clause in his contract of 100 million Euros (£87 million), report Marca.

Wolves would have to strike a compromise, with Diakhaby’s contract running until 2023.

While the Premier League side have Europa League football to offer, Valencia finished fourth in La Liga, meaning they will go into the Champions League qualifiers.

Last season Diakhaby’s Valencia were knocked out in the Champions League group stage, and the Europa League semi-finals, where he scored against Arsenal.
