Wolves' potential pre-season tour of America this summer is currently 'in the offing', according to reliable journalist Tim Spiers.

The Lowdown: Pre-season tour mooted

Wanderers are thriving on the pitch at the moment, sitting seventh in the Premier League table, but they also appear to be making good progress behind the scenes.

A recent claim from journalist John Percy suggested that Wolves are set to tour the USA for the first time in 50 years, with Bruno Lage and his players due to head out there in the summer.

While nothing has been confirmed yet, another update has also emerged regarding the club's 2022/23 pre-season plans.

The Latest: Spiers provides update on USA tour

Taking to Twitter on Monday night, Spiers claimed that the tour looks likely, in what would be Wolves' first trip abroad since 2019.

He revealed: "Not finalised or booked yet but been in the offing for quite a while now, they've been looking to go since Jimenez joined really, but went to China in 2019 and then obviously no tours since then."

The Verdict: Exciting for Wolves

Given the manner in which football is growing in popularity as a sport in America, this has to be considered exciting news for Wolves, as they look to branch out as a club.

The likes of Liverpool and Manchester United have huge support across the pond, and while Wanderers will likely never reach the level of those two, it would still be an ideal opportunity to gain new followers across the Atlantic.

With European football for next season a distinct possibility, and a US tour seemingly on the cards too, it seems an exciting time to be a Wolves supporter.
