Wolverhampton Wanderers surely won’t be signing Benik Afobe for £15m

Wolverhampton Wanderers have been linked with a move for Bournemouth forward Benik Afobe recently.

Wolverhampton Wanderers fans may be hoping that Benik Afobe returns to Molineux, but at £15 million there are surely better options available.

Wolves have shown that they have plenty of money to spend, and they may be one of the few Championship clubs who could afford to pay Bournemouth’s asking price for Afobe.

But Eddie Howe’s side seem to be demanding an excessive fee for the forward, who has struggled since moving to Dean Court.

The Sun report how Crystal Palace are tempted to move for Afobe, as they look to improve their attacking options.

But Wolves should avoid making a move for the 24-year-old, at that fee.

Wolves fans have been keen to see Afobe return, as reported by HITC, but there are better options out there for them currently.

Wolves have recently been linked with Lewis Grabban by Team Talk, and he may be a more prudent short-term option.

Grabban is a striker in-form, with 10 goals this season, and with Wolves gunning for promotion, they need players ready to hit the ground running.

And although Afobe may be a very talented player, the time is not right for Wolves to move to bring him back to Molineux at the moment.
