Wolverhampton Wanderers fans have aired their concern over Patrick Cutrone following a tweet from the Athletic journalist, Tim Spiers.
After the 2-1 defeat to Watford on New Year’s Day, Spiers tweeted stating that the Italian forward has featured in only 13 minutes of Premier League action since 19th October (per Tim Spiers), which had supporters stressing.
Since October 19, Patrick Cutrone has played 13 minutes of Premier League football.
One way or another that’s a situation that needs resolving asap. Jimenez will burn out and needs help.

I’m disappointed Cutrone wasn’t used today. Jimenez was a frustrated figure today and looked worn out. Really lacked that sharpness we’ve become used to

Why is that the case though? He works hard when he comes on, yeah he’s missed a few chances but I don’t think he’s been that bad?

Why ain’t we giving him time to fully settle in and adjust lol, we did it for Adama and he’s flourished, same for Donk, but we’re gonna flog him off on loan if we get a replacement ???

Will Patrick Cutrone be leaving Molineux, either on loan or permanently, in January?Yes, his days here are numbered
No, he will start getting minutes

Cutone’s total involvement for the Old Gold in the league this term has amassed to only 291 minutes across 12 appearances, in only three of which he completed more than 50 minutes (per Transfermarkt).
With three goals and four assists in all competitions, Cutrone, who is valued at £18 million (Transfermarkt), has a 6.32/10 average rating for the season so far (per Whoscored), leaving Wolves fans concerned about his future.
If Rauls performance the last 4/5 games ain’t enough for cutrone to get a chance then just send him back to italy

What’s happening Tim? Come on, you can tell us.

Raul was particularly poor today. Cutrone must have fallen out with Nuno

What do we think?
With such few minutes in the league following his £16million arrival from AC Milan over the summer (per BBC), it does seem strange that even with the squad stretched across the Europa League and domestic competitions he is rarely given the nod.
There is quite the sense among supporters seemingly that this one will be an interesting one to watch unfold across the January transfer window.
