# Wolves: Max Kilman will be a player ‘in demand’

**Some of the biggest Premier League clubs will be interested in signing Wolves defender Max Kilman this summer, according to journalist Pete O’Rourke.**

### The Lowdown: Kilman superb for Wolves

Bruno Lage’s side are enjoying a strong 2021/22 season, finding themselves on the fringes of the top-four battle after Sunday’s 2-0 win away to Tottenham.

Numerous players have shone for Wolves throughout the campaign and Kilman has unquestionably been a [standout figure](https://www.whoscored.com/Teams/161/Show/England-Wolverhampton-Wanderers), having [started all 23](https://www.whoscored.com/Players/368310/Show/Maximilian-Kilman) Premier League games, receiving a 7.01 rating from [WhoScored](https://www.whoscored.com/Matches/1549787/Preview/England-Premier-League-2021-2022-Tottenham-Wolverhampton-Wanderers) for his performance at Spurs.

The 24-year-old has been a rock in the back three, so much so that rumours of an [England call-up](https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-10260499/Wolves-defender-Max-Kilman-England-boss-Gareth-Southgates-radar-impressing-season.html) have been doing the rounds.

### The Latest: O’Rourke claims Kilman will be ‘in demand’

However, speaking to [GiveMeSport](https://www.givemesport.com/87971291-premier-league-big-boys-looking-at-wolves-star-max-kilman), O’Rourke claimed that Kilman could be a man in demand at the end of the season, with heavyweight clubs potentially making a move for him.

The journalist stated: “Left-sided centre-halves are always in demand, so I’m sure some of the bigger boys are looking at Kilman as a potential signing in the summer.”

### The Verdict: Huge money must be demanded

Kilman has been exceptional for Wolves – he has been [hailed](https://www.wolves.co.uk/news/first-team/20201005-coady-captain-praises-outstanding-kilman/) as ‘outstanding’ by Molineux captain Conor Coady – so the thought of losing him is a worrying one for the Old Gold.

On the plus side, the 24-year-old’s current deal runs until [2026](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/max-kilman/profil/spieler/525247), putting Wanderers in a strong bargaining position when it comes to demanding a huge fee for his services.

The hope is that Kilman stays put for many years, and the fact that he [recently extended his contract](https://www.wolves.co.uk/news/first-team/20211105-kilman-commits-long-term-future-to-wolves/) suggests that he remains loyal to the club with his peak years only now approaching.
