Luisão will not sign for Wolverhampton, according to the Portuguese newspaper Record.
They say the deal started collapsing after those responsible at the English club found out that the €2m yearly wages were leaked, these figures are something far from the Championship’s normal reality.
The story claims that in the past few hours, Wolves have told all the parties that the deal isn’t viable anymore. Luisão’s agents are now looking for other possibilities.
We’ll never know if the leaked salary is what really spoiled the deal, but it really sounds like a weird argument.
Luisão now joins Anderson Talisca and Pelé in the list of players who reportedly got close to joining Wolves, but the transfers never happened. On the other hand, Sílvio, João Teixeira and Ola John are those who had their moves completed as part of Jorge Mendes’ operation.
