A number of Wolves supporters are delighted after a rumour emerged claiming Romain Saiss is set for talks over a new deal at the club.

The 31-year-old is currently away on Africa Cup of Nations duty with Morocco and he could be a big loss throughout January.

Saiss has been a brilliant servant for Wolves since arriving back in 2016, making a total of 194 appearances in that time, including 19 Premier League starts this season.

The centre-back's current Wolves contract expires at the end of this season, however, so there is a clear need to tie down his future as soon as possible.

According to The Athletic [via Talking Wolves on Twitter], Saiss and Wolves are hopeful of opening talks over a new deal in the near future, in what represents a positive update.
