The Porto ace would be a useful addition for Wolverhampton Wanderers.

Nuno Espirito Santo the manager

Wolverhampton Wanderers have performed magnificently during the first six months of the Premier League season, and they currently sit in seventh spot in the table.

That will surely not stop Nuno Espirito Santo from strengthening in the summer, however, regardless of whether they mange to finish inside the top seven or not.

One particular area where the Portuguese might want to strengthen is his wide attacking department, with Ivan Cavaleiro facing an uncertain future at Molineux, and Helder Costa continuing to divide opinion in the Black Country.

With this in mind, Wolves should attempt to sign Porto ace Yacine Brahimi on a pre-contract agreement, with his current deal with he Primeira Liga side set to expire in the summer.

Nuno spent a year in charge of Porto, so he must still have connections with the Portuguese club, and he should use that to his advantage by moving for the 39-capped Algeria international.

The 28-year-old possesses incredible skill, and he plays with a certain type of directness that would make him ideally suited to Nuno’s setup at Wolves.

He has plenty of experience of playing at the every highest level, and he would add genuine competition for places in the wide attacking department at Molineux.

Brahimi’s availability on a free transfer in the summer makes a move for him a no-brainer for Wolves, and Nuno should not waste any time in setting the wheels in motion to bring him to Molineux at the end of this season.
