Wolverhampton Wanderers have no intention of letting Rayan Aït-Nouri leave this summer, according to La Gazette du Fennec.
The left-back made 38 appearances last season and his performances for the Premier League side haven’t gone unnoticed.
There’s been claims of Liverpool interest and it’s possible they could make an approach to sign the Wolves player in this window.
Wolves have let Hugo Bueno complete a loan move to Feyenoord, leaving Gary O’Neil with Aït-Nouri as the only recognised left-back at Molineux.
Therefore, the report says Wolves not only want to retain the Algeria international, but also sign a new fullback.
Liverpool, for their part, aren’t willing to give up, but the price could rise because Wolves intend to retain him.
A source has told La Gazette du Fennec that the Reds ‘will take action’.
It’s claimed Wolves could ask Liverpool to include midfielder Tyler Morton, who would be a ‘bargaining chip’, as part of the deal for Aït-Nouri.
This may not make much sense because the Algerian’s exit would force Wolves to sign two left-backs in the next few weeks.
