Wolverhampton Wanderers are reportedly targeting Morgan Sanson.
According to Le10 Sport, Wolverhampton Wanderers have launched a huge bid to sign Marseille midfielder Morgan Sanson at the end of the season.
Wolves may have missed out on a spot in the FA Cup final with a disappointing 3-2 defeat to Watford on Sunday afternoon, but they can still claim a Europa League place.
Wolves are in the box seat for seventh place in the Premier League table, and bringing Europa League football to Molineux would be a huge step forward for the club, inside a year of winning promotion to the top flight.
They’ve just laid out a major signal of intent by signing striker Raul Jimenez permanently in a club-record deal, and more spending could be on the way this summer.
Le10 Sport now claim in an article and video that Wolves want to bring in Marseille midfielder Morgan Sanson, and have submitted a staggering bid of €42million (£36.25million) to try and lure him to Molineux.
It’s unclear just what Marseille will do in this scenario, but that’s huge money, and may just tempt them into letting Sanson make a huge move to the Premier league this summer.
Sanson, 24, has impressed for Marseille since signing from Montpellier in 2017, hitting 12 goals last season, whilst he’s also grabbed four goals and four assists so far this term.
A well-rounded midfielder with a great passing range, Sanson would bring even more quality to the Wolves midfield, though spending so much on another midfielder would be a huge surprise given that Nuno already has Ruben Neves, Leander Dendoncker and Joao Moutinho at his disposal.
