Wolverhampton Wanderers should consider a move for the exit-linked Tottenham Hotspur star.

Wolves seem to be in the market for a powerful central midfielder.

According to a report from Italian media outlet Sport Mediaset, Nuno Espirito Santo wants to bring AC Milan ace Franck Kessie to Molineux.

Sky Sports claim that the Black Country outfit are struggling to meet the Serie A giants’ demands for the Ivorian, however.

So are there any other useful options out there for Wolves?

Tottenham ace Victor Wanyama is a name that jumps straight out.

According to the Sun, the £11.5 million-rated Spurs ace is a target for Bournemouth, but Wolves could surely tempt him into moving to Molineux instead of the Vitality Stadium.

Power

The Kenya international captain possesses raw power, and his physical approach to the game really would add some much-need steel to Wolves’ midfield.

Tenacious tackling

Wanyama’s game is based around his tenacity in the challenge, and he excels at winning the ball back from the opposition, before quickly moving it on to more technically gifted players. This would surely bring out the best in the likes of Ruben Neves and Joao Moutinho.

Experience, great value

At 28, Wanyama has already made 387 appearances for club and country, and his experienced head could prove to be a real asset for Wolves.

His availability for just £11.5 million (The Sun) makes a move for him an absolute no-brainer for Wolves. Wanyama is a lot cheaper than Kessie, and is arguably a better player. He also has plenty of Premier League experience.

And Nuno should not hesitate to bring the Tottenham man to Molineux this summer.
