As per reports in This Is Futbol, reliable journalist Tim Spiers has said that Premier League new entrants Wolves are interested in Danish centre-back Alexander Molberg. The player is reported to have already arrived at the Molineux and was handed a trial in Wolves’ friendly encounter against Burnley.
The game took place behind the closed doors and the Championship winners from the last season went to beat the Clarets by 3-1. However, the match was more important because they had the 19-year-old defender playing, which gave them a chance to scrutinise his playing style and whether he would fit in their ranks or not.
Known for his massive 6’2″ frame and his stellar defensive abilities, the Danish defensive ace currently plies his trade for the top flight side Hobro IK in Denmark and has attracted the attention of the Wolves manager Nuno Santo, who might be willing to add more steel to his team this summer, backed by the owners of the club.
The Portuguese manager is well aware of the fact that a huge challenge awaits his side next season as they will have to vie against some of the top teams in all over England as well as Europe. The Wolves had a somewhat comfortable season in the Championship as they were heads and shoulders over all the other teams and went onto earn direct promotion to the Premier League.
