The Daily Mail have claimed on their live transfer blog (12:31, Thursday) that Wolverhampton Wanderers are to send Connor Ronan on loan to Slovakian side Dac Streda.

The Ireland Under-21 international has spent the first half of the season with League One side Walsall, where he made 15 appearances in all competitions. He returned to Wolves this month, though, with Walsall not opting to keep him.

Ronan has 13 senior appearances for Wolves under his belt but is well down the pecking order under Nuno Espirito Santo, with Wolves boasting plenty of midfield talent in Ruben Neves, Joao Moutinho, Romain Saiss and more.

But Ronan has not featured for Wolves since October 2017 in the Carabao Cup loss to Manchester City during Wolves’ promotion year from the Championship, and now he is set to leave.

Ronan is able to play in a number of positions, having been used out wide, attacking midfield and as a number four and even as a striker. His long-term future at Molineux remains in doubt, though.

That is because the midfielder’s contract is set to expire at the end of the season. Streda currently sit second in the Slovakian Super League – but are eight points behind Slovan Bratislava.
