Wolverhampton Wanderers would be making a ‘statement signing’ if they were to land Stuttgart striker Sasa Kalajdzic, says journalist Pete O’Rourke.

The Lowdown: Kalajdzic agrees personal terms

Premier League rivals Arsenal are believed to be targeting a move for Pedro Neto, so Bruno Lage has entered the market for attacking reinforcements in case of an imminent departure.

The 25-year-old Kalajdzic has been the subject of attention from the likes of Manchester United, Brighton and Everton, though it’s the Molineux side who are the first to have taken action.

Recent reports have claimed that the Austrian is in negotiations to join Bruno Lage’s side, with a deal now believed to be close having agreed personal terms.

The Latest: O’Rourke excited by Wolves negotiations

Speaking to The Transfer Tavern, O’Rourke believes that it would be a massive coup for Wolves if they managed to fend off their competitors and sign Kalajdzic.

“It looks like it would be a big signing for Wolves if they were to land him. Kalajdzic has had some top clubs looking at him.

“He’s got a good goalscoring record for Stuttgart and also for Austria, so if Wolves were able to beat some of those other sides to his signature before the window closes, I think it’d be a real statement signing from Wolves.”

The Verdict: Get it done…

Speculation of a move to Wolves has been increased after Kalajdzic was left out of Stuttgart’s match-day squad earlier this week, and he would be an outstanding signing if he is indeed on his way to Molineux.

The 6 foot 7 giant has made 33 goal contributions in just 51 appearances in the Bundesliga, via Transfermarkt, and provides a strong aerial threat, averaging three aerial duels won per game so far this season.

Kalajdzic is likely to be available for just under £17m given his contract expires next summer, so Wolves should take this chance to snap him up whilst they still can for an absolute bargain of a fee.
