Earlier today, we covered claims from the Netherlands saying Edson Alvarez could be moving from America to Ajax.

That came as a surprise, since the player has been heavily linked to Wolverhampton Wanderers by the Mexican media, who have had stories on the situation for weeks.

Now it turns out that in Mexico, Wolves are still considered to be the frontrunners in the race. The Molineux side are the only ones to be named by newspaper El Universal today.

The outlet claims that Alvarez isn’t even returning to America after the Copa Oro, and it’s Wolves who are willing to take him to Europe.

The report sounds pretty sure that the defender is leaving Mexico this summer, but there are no details on Wolves’ chase, as all they know is that the Premier League side are keen on him.

El Universal makes it clear that America’s plan is to sell players to whoever makes the best offer. They say the Mexican club are only waiting for the formal offer to let him go.
