Wolverhampton Wanderers are no doubt on cloud nine after defeating Liverpool 2-1 in the FA Cup third round on Monday, and they will be wanting to continue that form in the Premier League.

However, their form in the top-flight recently has left a lot to be desired, which surely means that boss Nuno Espirito Santo is in need of some reinforcements to boost the club’s success.

A player that they should seriously consider taking a look at is Bournemouth winger Ryan Fraser, who according to the Sun, has the likes of Everton on the prowl for his services.

Fraser primarily operates on the left-hand side, a position which Wolves could really do with strengthening, as Diogo Jota is one of the only credible players in that position.

Wolves should join the race for his signature as soon as possible, as the 24-year-old is just what the side need to propel themselves from Premier League new boys to genuine competitors.

The Toffees are keen to buy the left-sided ace for £15 million, which is a figure that Wolves would be able to match if they were serious about signing him.

He has been a mainstay in the Cherries team – he has 25 outings to his name in all competitions – and has scored six goals in the process, as well as providing ten assists.

Nuno would be mad not to plot a swoop for this in-form player, as it would mean that he squad would then have enough depth to compete against anyone in the league.

If Wolves ever want to be considered as a top-ten team, then signing Fraser is a very good way of going about that aim.

At 24, he has not reached the peak of his career just yet, and what a sight it would be to behold to eventually see him reach his stride.

This move is an absolute no-brainer – so over to you, Nuno.
