Stark figures this week have revealed that Wolves have spent £26m on agent fees - almost double what they paid in the previous year.
New figures published by the FA have revealed that between February 4, 2024 and February 4, 2025, Wolves shelled out £26m to agents.
That is up from £13.5m the year before, and £13.3m the year before that.
Wolves are the seventh highest spender in terms of agents fees in the Premier League - despite the fact they have sat bottom for the majority of the campaign.
It has long been stated that Wolves’ summer transfer window in 2025 was a poor one - and set them up for failure this season.
The figures have been met with anger by Wolves fans - with many stating that it underlines how the club has been run.
Posting on X, one fan said: “The worst of all: This evident leakage will be the main cause of wolves relegation. Simply unacceptable.”
Another added: “Given the utter dross brought in, obviously money well spent.”
Another Wolves fan believes it is down to ‘total panic’ last summer, when Wolves were struggling to attract players.
They posted: “Total panic because the club was badly prepared and can no longer attract top talent.”

Another Wolves fan kept it simple, stating: “Further evidence of a poorly run football club.”
Another believes spending that sort of money should guarantee top players. They stated: “What!!! How???? Awful business How did we go from getting Neves, Jota etc to Arias, Jackson etc. Spending that amount should guarantee top players.”
One joked they should be in for a refund, adding: “If only they were performance based; we'd be due £50m+ back!”
While another believes there needs to be a rule changing. They said: “Agent fees are out of control... They should be capped at a max percentage.”
