Many Wolves fans have been left fuming as some news emerged involving their plans for the January transfer window.

As per The Express & Star, the Midlands club are now getting a cash injection of £23m by taking a loan secured against transfer funds due after they sold Diogo Jota to Liverpool.

They received part of the transfer fee up front with the rest of the funds coming in instalments, however, the money that they will now receive is not understood to be part of an effort by them to build up a winter war chest.

Bruno Lage has previously complained about having a small squad before, and with injuries at the back, as well as Willy Boly and Romain Saiss set to play in the African Cup of Nations (AFCON) with Ivory Coast and Morocco respectfully, reinforcements are certainly needed next month.

However, it looks as if none of the £23m coming in will be spent on transfers, much to the anger of the Molineux faithful.

"What’s the loan for? Club are in a good position financially and it’s not for players in January so what’s the point?"

"Why doesn’t Liverpool cough up the monies instead they have had the asset best part of a year! I’ve never heard of a business taking out a loan in advance of a debtor paying an invoice - what a joke"
