Some Wolverhampton Wanderers fans have been reacting positively to a tweet that was recently posted by Wolves news Twitter account @TalkingWolves which has relayed The Sun’s claim that the Old Gold are lining up a January move for Salomon Rondon.

As explained in The Sun’s report, this link comes as a result of Nuno Espirito Santo being ‘bare of options’ at centre-forward, due to Raul Jimenez fracturing his skull, leaving him likely to miss most of the 2020/21 campaign.

Rondon is currently playing for Dalian Professional, where he is under contract until the end of December 2022 but it’s claimed that the Chinese Super League club may be open to doing a deal for the Venezuela international, with Wolves said to be interested in bringing him in on a short-term basis.

So, how did these Wolves fans react to this transfer link?

This claim drew a positive reaction from plenty of Wolves supporters, with some fans of the West Midlands club indicating that his experience of playing in England’s top-flight in the past with West Brom and Newcastle makes him a good option for the Old Gold.

Who is Wolves' PL top goal scorer?

Would take that any day https://t.co/FMB4RkvmXK

Honestly I’d take that. Proven PL goalscorer. Offers physicality going forward that we don’t have. Good competition for Silva. Someone we was interested in before so Nuno clearly thinks he’d fit our system

I’ve always rated Rondon as a player, physical and would be good vs Silva for his spot and hopefully make him get his head down and fight for it
