Last week, the Portuguese press reported that Wolverhampton Wanderers were on the chase for Sporting youngster Rodrigo Fernandes.
Newspaper O Jogo said Wolves were evaluating the chances of signing the player, who’s a Jorge Mendes client, and could offer up to €12m for him. The agent connection was presented as being an important factor in Wolves interest.
Today it’s newspaper A Bola who brings an update on the player’s situation, and they claim that he should soon leave Sporting.
The outlet claims there’s a ‘good possibility’ of him moving to England, since he’s been recently linked to Wolves, with the Mendes factor being of huge importance.
A Bola aren’t sure if Fernandes would move on a permanent transfer or a loan deal. Either way, things look good for clubs who want him.
