Due to the Portuguese attacker having been the Old Gold’s sixth-best performer in the Premier League with a 6.89/10 average rating (per WhoScored), fans continued to air their disapproval of the link.
They’re 6th in the Seria A, Hirving Lozano barely gets a game for them, Barca are about to knock them out the CL, would be pointless for him

As if he’s interested ?

However, while many rejected the notion of a deal outright, one supporter saw a way in which he would be okay with the deal between the Serie A club and Wolves going ahead.
Swap for Lozano plus cash

What do we think?
As can be seen in the responses from Wolves supporters, there are many that have no interest in a deal for the 23-year-old taking place at all.
With a current market value of £31.5 million and two seasons remaining on his contract following the conclusion of this one (per Transfermarkt), it seems likely that it would be a hefty figure if it does happen.
