Mario Lemina to Molineux?

According to a report over the weekend from the Daily Mail, fellow Premier League outfit Wolves are keen to take Mario Lemina from Saints before the transfer deadline.

It has been well-documented that Saints are willing to let the 25-year-old leave this summer and a host of clubs have been linked with him.

The likes of Atalanta, Everton, Arsenal and Manchester United have reportedly been pursuing him, and Wolves are the latest.

Nuno Espirito Santo’s side are said to want an initial loan deal for the Gabon international, with a view to a permanent deal at the end of the upcoming season.
