Supporters of Wolverhampton Wanderers have reacted to Tim Spiers’ update that the club is interested in signing Nelson Oliveira from AEK Athens.

According to the Athletic reporter, ‘talks have taken place’ for the Old Gold to sign the striker (as per Tim Spiers), which had some fans delighted to see a potential striker coming in.

Would you be happy to have Nelson Oliveira as a backup option to Raul Jimenez?

Yes, he would do a decent job

Yes, he would do a decent job

No, we need better than him

This term, the 28-year-old striker has scored ten goals and has six assists in 20 games in all competitions for his Greek club (as per Transfermarkt).

Despite his strong return with direct goal involvements, some supporters were not too keen on the move for the former Norwich City man and some doubted the existence of the link at all.

What do we think?

While it can be understandable that Wolves fans do not want a striker that scored only one goal in ten appearances in the Premier League (as per Transfermarkt), the Old Gold need backup after Patrick Cutrone‘s and Rafa Mir‘s departures.

With 16 goal involvements in all competitions for AEK Athens in 20 games so far this term, however, Oliveira could certainly provide the backup option that is required.
