While Wolves are not expected to throw money around in the final week of the transfer window, they remain hopeful of adding to their squad.

It is likely to dominate Gary O'Neil's press conference ahead of Sunday's visit of Chelsea - and a quick return for Pedro Neto following his 拢54m move to Stamford Bridge this month.

Wolves have signed Rodrigo Gomes and Pedro Lima for more than 拢20m, while also making Tommy Doyle's loan from Manchester City permanent. There is also the expected 拢23m outlay on striker Jorgen Strand Larsen once he makes his initial loan from Celta Vigo permanent.

So there has been money spent and they are willing to spend more, just not at the level some would have hoped for having brought in almost 拢100m, when Max Kilman's 拢40m move to West Ham is factored in.

The pursuits of Burnley defender Dara O'Shea and Arsenal goalkeeper Aaron Ramsdale are likely to go into the final week of the window.

O'Shea wants to move to Molineux, allowing him to return to the West Midlands having spent seven years at rivals West Bromwich Albion.

The Clarets are not budging on their 拢15m valuation of the centre-back, with Wolves so far offering 拢13m, while the Gunners want to sell Ramsdale, rather than the initial loan Wolves have offered.
