Wolves reject Genoa approach for Silva
- Published
Wolves have rejected Genoa's loan bid for striker Fabio Silva.
The Serie A club's offer included an option to buy but it was turned down, although Wolves are keen to sell the forward.
Silva has failed to make an impact since moving for a then-record deal worth £35m from Porto in 2020 and has scored just five goals in 72 appearances.
He has spent time on loan at Anderlecht, PSV Eindhoven and Rangers. His most recent Wolves appearance came in the 2-1 defeat at Sheffield United in November, where he conceded a stoppage-time penalty.
In the second half of last season at Ibrox. he scored six goals in 25 appearances after joining in January.
Genoa, managed by former Italy striker Alberto Gilardino, finished 11th in Serie A last term and are looking to replace Albert Gudmundsson, who is expected to join Fiorentina.
