# Wolves: Fans react to Fosun Bordeaux report

**Wolves’ owners Fosun have made an offer to save Ligue 1 side Bordeaux according to [Girondinfos](https://twitter.com/Girondinfos/status/1396890128086441986).**

Jorge Mendes is said to be leading the project, and if their attempted takeover is successful, Olympiacos’ Portuguese boss Pedro Martins would be appointed manager.

### Huge summer ahead for Fosun and Wolves

Wolves themselves are presently without a manager after agreeing to part company with Nuno Espirito Santo.

According to [Fabrizio Romano](https://twitter.com/FabrizioRomano/status/1396909169047965703), the club are working to complete a deal for SL Benfica’s Bruno Lage after opening talks last week.

It’s also a key transfer window for the club after they slipped to 13th in the Premier League table, having previously secured back-to-back seventh-place finishes.

The Midlands outfit spent [£74.5million](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/wolverhampton-wanderers/transfers/verein/543) on new players last summer, with Fabio Silva and Nelson Semedo the headline recruits.

They banked [£71.3million](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/wolverhampton-wanderers/transfers/verein/543) from outgoings as Diogo Jota, Matt Doherty and Helder Costa departed the club.

Fan feed [Talking Wolves](https://twitter.com/TalkingWolves/status/1396901207843774466) relayed the Fosun news, and here’s how fans reacted.
