These Wolves fans have reacted to the latest departure talk around Jesus Vallejo returning to Real Madrid early.
The Wolves manager Nuno Espirito Santo has commented on Jesus Vallejo’s future on Wolves’ official website, saying: “I’m going to be clear, Jesus probably is going because he wants to play, he’s a young and talented player that we brought here with high expectations, but it didn’t work out. It’s time for him to go and find a club where he can play and keep on progressing because the talent is there.”
Vallejo has only managed to play two Premier League matches in total but was given his chance in the UEFA Europa League qualifying stages, playing three times in the European competition.
These comments were later relayed to the fans on Twitter via Talking Wolves and Tim Nash. Here’s what the Wolves fans had to say about the potential departure:

Really nice guy but clearly not good enough for this team.

Would you like to see Jesus Vallejo return to Real Madrid?
Yes
No
The Spaniard is currently on loan from Real Madrid, so it’ll be interesting to see if the 22-year-old can play for the Spanish giant; that’s if he is actually recalled of course.

What Do We Think?
It’s a shame it hasn’t quite worked out for Jesus Vallejo, as the centre-back is clearly a talent if Real Madrid are happy to have him on their books. However, the Premier League is one of the toughest leagues around and this potential departure proves just that.
With Vallejo playing just 9% of Wolves’ total Premier League minutes, the 22-year-old was never going to be happy with such little game time, so this potential return to Madrid isn’t a huge surprise.
