Wolves have been offered the chance to sign a "fantastic" defender during the summer transfer window, according to a fresh claim from journalist Tom Collomosse.
Wolves pushing for Premier League defender and winger
The start of the 2025/26 Premier League season is now only a week away, with Vitor Pereira's side opening their account at home to title challengers Manchester City on August 16th.
Some are tipping Wolves to be among the relegation candidates this season, and having lost star player Matheus Cunha to Manchester United earlier in the summer, it is vital that more new faces arrive before the transfer window closes on September 1st.
Vitor Pereira
One report has claimed that Wolves are pushing hard to complete the signing of Chelsea centre-back Axel Disasi, pipping Newcastle United to his signature in the process. An ACL injury picked up by Levi Colwill could now change the situation, however, should the Blues feel there is more of a need to keep hold of the Frenchman.
Meanwhile, added quality is required in wide attacking areas, and Liverpool youngster Ben Doak has been linked with a move to Wolves. The Reds value him at around £20m, with a host of clubs keen on him.
Wolves offered chance to sign £15m defender
According to a new update from The Daily Mail's Collomosse, Coventry City have offered £15m-rated defender Milan van Ewijk to Wolves this summer.
That said, a move to Molineux doesn't appear to be likely as things stand, with the Premier League side having "other players above him in the list" of potential summer signings.
Milan-Van-Ewijk
If the situation changes and Wolves suddenly see Van Ewijk as a leading contender this summer, he could be an excellent addition for Pereira.
The Dutchman has arguably been among the leading right-backs in the Championship for a number of years now, making 47 league appearances for Coventry last season, eventually losing to Sunderland in the playoffs.
Van Ewijk can provide quality at both ends of the pitch, registering nine league assists over the past two seasons and averaging 2.6 clearances per game in 2024/25, while fan and pundit Chris Deez has spoken positively about him.
"He’s a fantastic player and by and large, his time with us has been largely positive. He had a great first season, before a difficult start to the second season under Mark Robins, but then picked up towards the end. He obviously made that mistake which pretty much cost us the play-offs, but I don’t think anybody really holds that against him because he has been a great player for us."
With Nelson Semedo departing Wolves at the end of last season, the need for a new right-back is clear for Wolves, and Van Ewijk's experience of English football makes him an astute option. That said, it looks as though they will look elsewhere to strengthen in that area of the pitch.
