Wolverhampton Wanderers star Pablo Sarabia is set to be on his way out of Molineux in the coming month, according to reports - with suggestions from Spain that the Spanish international is being lined up for a return to Sevilla after a two-and-a-half-year stint in the west Midlands.
Wolves finished 16th last season, their lowest placing since promotion to the Premier League in 2018 - and Pereira will be keen to continue the form he showed earlier in the season, having won six games in a row from mid-March through to the start of May. But he'll have to do that without Sarabia, who appears to be Spain-bound.

The Wolves star hasn't appeared as he would've liked in the Premier League

The report by La Colina de Nervion states that Sevilla tend to focus on bringing former players back to the Estadio Ramon Sanchez Pizjuan - and that is no different this time around, with Spanish star Sarabia being 'sorely missed' in Andalusia.

Sarabia enjoyed the best moments of his career in the south of Spain, having been on the books at Real Madrid and Getafe earlier in his time in Spain - where an outstanding 2018/19 campaign saw the current Wolves man score 22 goals in just 52 games, prompting a move to Paris Saint-Germain.
He's not had the best of times in recent years at Wolves, only scoring eight goals in 66 games for the Molineux outfit in the Premier League, but his efforts over the past two seasons have only resulted in 34 starts and as a result, he's not a favoured player under Vitor Pereira.
Sarabia's estimated £90,000-per-week contract is set to expire in a month, and Sevilla have been touted as his next destination as a return to his old stomping ground appears to be on the cards. The former Spain international has 'said goodbye' to Wolves, hinting that his contract won't be renewed and at the age of 33, a return to his homeland appears the best option.
The likes of Andre, Jean-Ricner Bellegarde, Hwang Hee-chan and Goncalo Guedes are all ahead of him in the pecking order and with Vitor Pereira set to receive £62.5million for Manchester United-bound Matheus Cunha, that could see him opt for similar profiles to Sarabia at a younger age.
