# Wolves: Tim Spiers believes Romain Saiss has said his goodbyes

**[Wolves](https://www.footballtransfertavern.com/wolves-news/) centre-back Romain Saiss was ‘waving goodbye’ to supporters after his team’s [Premier League](https://www.footballtransfertavern.com/premier-league-news/) clash against Norwich City at the weekend, according to journalist Tim Spiers.**

### The Lowdown: Wolves draw with Norwich

It has been a disappointing end to the season for Bruno Lage’s side, who bowed out at Molineux for another campaign with a 1-1 draw against the relegated Canaries on Sunday afternoon.

It means that Wolves’ European dream is over for another year but the players still got a nice reception from the crowd as they showed their appreciation after the final whistle.

It was a moment to gauge the body language of some, in order to see if it looked as though they were saying their farewells in the Black Country.

### The Latest: Spiers reckons Saiss was ‘waving goodbye’

That certainly appeared to be the case with Saiss, with Spiers taking to [Twitter](https://twitter.com/TimSpiers/status/1525855849335468033?s=20&t=PNM9rKyHmZi1UrILD0hACw) to claim that the Moroccan may have played at Molineux for the last time as he [shared a clip](https://twitter.com/TimSpiers/status/1525855713188249600) of the Wolves players acknowledging the fans in a post-match lap of honour.

The journalist tweeted: “Saiss at the end there. Waving goodbye you’d have to say.”

### The Verdict: Great servant for Wolves

It makes sense for Saiss to move on at this point, with his contract [expiring](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/romain-saiss/profil/spieler/204198) next month. At 32, it would seem that his best days are no longer in front of him.

He should be remembered as a brilliant servant for Wolves, though, with the Moroccan making [206 appearances](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/romain-saiss/leistungsdatendetails/spieler/204198/verein/543) for the club, scoring 15 goals for good measure and standing out as [one of their best performers](https://www.whoscored.com/Teams/161/Show/England-Wolverhampton-Wanderers) this term.

It is now a case of replacing Saiss, who has been such a [reliable and regular part](https://www.whoscored.com/Players/236519/History/Romain-Sa%C3%AFss) of the defence for a number of years, to ensure that Lage’s side remain as defensively savvy next season as they [were for the bulk of](https://www.whoscored.com/Regions/252/Tournaments/2/England-Premier-League) 2021/22.
