# Wolves: Wanderers make enquiry for Victor Nelsson

**[Wolverhampton Wanderers](https://www.footballtransfertavern.com/wolves-news/) have made an enquiry to sign Galatasaray defender Victor Nelsson, according to the Daily Mail.**

### The Lowdown: Boly set to leave

Bruno Lage will be in the market for defensive reinforcements to find a suitable replacement for Willy Boly, who is expected to complete a move to fellow [Premier League](https://www.footballtransfertavern.com/premier-league-news/) rivals Nottingham Forest in the coming days amid [interest](https://www.footballtransfertavern.com/nottingham-forest-news/nottingham-forest-premier-league-willy-boly-transfers-news-updates/) from the Midlands.

The 31-year-old has now entered the [final year](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/wolverhampton-wanderers/berateruebersicht/verein/543) of his contract at Molineux and is [yet to feature](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/willy-boly/leistungsdaten/spieler/142310) this season, but it sounds like Wolves have already identified his ideal successor.

### The Latest: Wolves make Nelsson contact

According to the [Daily Mail](https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-11144365/Wolves-eye-double-swoop-Sasa-Kalajdzic-Victor-Nelsson.html), Wolves have ‘asked about a deal’ for Nelsson, as a result of Lage ‘wanting to bring in another defender’ before the end of the window.

It’s stated that the Old Gold are ‘keen’ on the £20m-rated colossus, having established himself and proven his worth in Turkey since arriving there last summer.

### The Verdict: Get it done…

It would be a massive coup for Wolves to land Nelsson, so they need to do everything possible to get this deal over the line.

The centre-back, [dubbed](https://twitter.com/ftalentscout/status/1233148685325918212?s=21&t=_aN5W8hGz3IvylvQqZ6dyw) a ‘monster’ by football talent scout [Jacek Kulig](https://twitter.com/FTalentScout), was an absolute rock at the heart of Galatasaray’s backline last season, averaging 3.9 clearances and winning 3.2 of his aerial duels per Super Lig game, via [WhoScored](https://www.whoscored.com/Players/376805/History/Victor-Nelsson).

Nelsson is also expected to be named in Denmark’s squad for the World Cup later this year so would bring bags of high-level experience and leadership qualities to Molineux.
