Rafa Mir hasn’t yet played a Premier League game for Wolverhampton Wanderers but a spell in the Championship with Hull City could work wonders.
Wolverhampton Wanderers are keen to ensure Rafa Mir gets some experience of English football under his belt next season with El Periodico claiming that they have offered Hull City the chance to sign the highly-rated striker.
Big things were expected of Mir at Molineux when he joined Wolves from Valencia in the winter of 2018 for around £1.7 million (Superdeporte). Not just because his goalscoring record in the youth ranks with Los Che was hugely impressive, but because Real Madrid wanted him too.
So far, however, Mir has played just five minutes of league football under Nuno Espirito Santo and he spent the entire 2018/19 campaign on loan at Las Palmas, scoring seven goals in 30 games.
According to El Periodico, Real Zaragoza would love to sign the Spain U21 international on another temporary deal but Wolves think he would be better off playing regularly in England, albeit in the Championship.
They have apparently offered Hull the chance to sign Mir on loan.
And this stance certainly makes sense. Wolves signed Mir to be a future star in the Black Country but, if he is to live up to expectations, he must prove that he can adapt to life in English football.
A move to Hull, and the chance to play alongside creative wingers like Jarrod Bowen and Kamil Grosicki, should get the best out of a very talented finisher.
