What do we think?
As mentioned, Wolves have been desperate for signings who will, without a doubt, give competition for a first-team spot (via Express and Star) and it looks as though one will be on the way in.
With a 6.95/10 average rating for the season so far (as per WhoScored), hopefully, the Portuguese attacker can continue to improve under Nuno Espirito Santo.
