Chelsea winger Victor Moses was reportedly on the radar of Wolverhampton Wanderers in the summer transfer window.
Wolverhampton Wanderers were linked with Chelsea winger Victor Moses in the summer transfer window.
According to The Daily Mail (Transfer Live blog, 13:48, August 9, 2018), Wolves were looking at singing Moses from Premier League rivals Chelsea (click here to read more).
Nothing materialised, and the 27-year-old Nigerian winger is still at Stamford Bridge.
Moses, though, is struggling for playing time at the moment, having been able to play just 26 minutes in the Premier League and 49 minutes in the Europa League so far this season, according to WhoScored.
Chelsea manager Maurizio Sarri has suggested that Moses as well as his teammate Danny Drinkwater could leave in the January transfer window.
Sarri has suggested that the two players do not fit his style, and perhaps it is a hint that Moses could be sold January, which could tempt Wolves into making a move for the former Crystal Palace and Wigan Athletic winger – who earns £75,000 per week as salary, according to Spotrac.com.
“I think the situation is that Drinkwater for me is not suitable for a midfield (ahead of Jorginho or Fabregas) with two midfielders,” Sarri told The London Evening Standard. “I told him two months ago what I think.
“Moses is more suitable for playing like a wing back, than a winger or a full back. Do they have a future at Chelsea? I don’t know. They have to improve but their characteristics are a little bit different.”
