Wolves' home stadium, Molineux
Wolves reportedly have an ‘agreement’ in place with Chilean winger Dario Osorio over a summer move, but his current club are reluctant to sell.
The Lowdown: Forwards wanted
Bruno Lage’s side are preparing for the start of the new Premier League season, with the trip to Leeds United on August 6th edging closer all the time.
It has been a relatively quiet summer transfer at Molineux, although rumours continue to surround the potential exits of Ruben Neves, Morgan Gibbs-White and Adama Traore.
The hope is that a number of new arrivals start arriving now, with Steve Madeley confirming they will sign a new striker, and perhaps even two attacking signings are required now after the injury to Raul Jimenez.
The Latest: Osorio ‘agreement’ in place
According to TNT Sports [via Sport Witness], Osorio has already received a ‘millionaire offer’ from Wolves this summer, as they look to sign the 18-year-old.
There is ‘already an agreement’ regarding the move, although Universidad de Chile coach Diego Lopez believes he should remain in his homeland to continue his development.

The Verdict: One for the future
While Osorio will be a relative unknown to many, he is a gifted young talent with a bright future, having already won one cap for Chile, despite his tender years.

His record of three goals in four appearances for his country’s Under-20s side is further proof of his ability and he could add depth out wide, predominantly shining on the left-hand side.
Signing young and emerging talent shows that Lage is planning well into the future at Wolves, rather than only bringing in players for the present, and the hope is that a deal is agreed in the coming weeks.
