According to latest reports, Wolverhampton Wanderers are being linked to highly talented Dutch winger Anwar El Ghazi. Wolves have been terrific this season under Nuno Espirito Santo as they have secured their promotion to the Premier League with quite a few games to spare.
The West Midlands club has pretty much been unchallenged throughout the competition as they have been head and shoulders above everyone else. The credit must go to the new owners and their manager as they have brought a sense of excitement among the fans. Wolves were last part of the Premier League six seasons ago and now they will be plying their trade in the English top flight in next season.
Wolves haven’t been afraid to splash the cash in the transfer market as they broke the club record to bring in Ruben Neves from Porto. The Portuguese has been a revelation in midfield and has been instrumental in securing their promotion. They will be looking to strengthen further in the summer so that they can continue to stay in the Premier League for years to come.
El Ghazi could be brought in to provide much-needed depth to the squad as Santo would know the competition in the Premier League will be much more than he faced in the Championship.
El Ghazi currently plies his trade in the French League for Lille. He was previously a part of Dutch heavyweights Ajax. The winger was eligible to play for both Morocco and the Netherlands but he went on to choose to play for the Oranje and he has already made two senior appearances for them. El Ghazi is known for his brilliant dribbling technique as he can make his way out of tight spaces. He likes taking on defenders and isn’t afraid to run down the line while beating defenders in such situations.
He is also known for his ball control and uses his strength to protect the ball as a result of this he draws a whole lot of fouls on him throughout the game. He scored 20 goals in the Eredivisie in 70 appearances which is a good haul for a winger. He joined Lille in 2017 and has been quite good for them.

One of the reasons why this move can go through is because of his agent Jorge Mendes. Mendes has good relation with Nuno Espirito Santo and that can play a huge part in bringing El Ghazi to the Molineux stadium. He will certainly be a great addition to any side and Wolves can do with a player like him in the near future.
