Supporters of Wolverhampton Wanderers have buzzed over Conor Coady following a post involving the player by the Old Gold’s official account.
On Thursday night, the Molineux club posted a video of the Englishman giving his shirt to a young supporter to the club’s official Twitter account which solely stated ‘captain’ (via Wolves).
With supporters seizing the opportunity to air their thoughts on their man, many began to gush over the 26-year-old centre-back.

He is such a role model for the club. He is always there to do the press even when we’ve lost. I think he is genuinely a nice guy you cant fake that.

We sit in Billy Wright Upper and as we were leaving I watched him do this and thought to myself, ‘What a guy, what a captain to have at the club’. The perfect role model for young and old alike.

Is Conor Coady Wolves' greatest ever captain?Yes, he's a legendNo, not quite yet |
So far this term, the Englishman has featured for Nuno Espirito Santo’s side on 26 occasions in all competitions (as per Transfermarkt).
Across his entire four-and-a-half years with the Old Gold, the 26-year-old has featured in 204 games for the Molineux club and bagged two goals and seven assists (via Transfermarkt).
Over his time in the midlands, supporters have grown more and more infatuated with the defender and following the post, that spilt over onto social media.

What do we think?
Wolves’ Conor Coady, who is valued at £13.5 million (Transfermarkt), epitomises exactly what a captain should be and represent, for which he is deservingly appreciated for by supporters of the Old Gold.
