Wolves still have 'lot of work to do' this window at Molineux

Wolverhampton Wanderers’ signing of Valencia and Portugal forward Gonçalo Guedes is a “massive uptick” for the club but they still have a lot of work to do this month, according to Dean Jones.

The 25-year-old signed for Bruno Lage’s side for a fee of £27.5m on a five-year deal last week.

Wolves have now made two additions to the side this summer, with Guedes’ arrival following July’s signing of Burnley and Republic of Ireland centre-back Nathan Collins for £20.5m.

However, the club have lost seven players who were generally in and around the first team squad last season, with the most significant departure being that of long-serving club-captain Conor Coady, who moved to Everton on a season-long loan with the option to buy last week.

The club’s last Premier League victory was in a 2-1 derby win over Aston Villa last season back in April, whilst the club finished last season as the lowest scoring team who didn’t get relegated, suggesting that the club need to go in a different direction this season.

And Jones believes that the news of Guedes’ signing will have given Wolves fans a lift, going into the final few weeks of the transfer window.

He told GIVEMESPORT: “I mean, they just need to be lifted up by other news, I guess you know, the news that Guedes is coming in is a massive uptick for them.

“They need something in that frontline, they need a new verve basically, somebody that gets people going and is exciting to watch.

“You know, it was disappointing to lose that first game to Leeds, but it’s also a bit predictable based on a tumultuous summer really.

“So yeah, there’s still a lot of work to be done at Wolves and maybe the fans will be happy by the time that window closes and they get a couple of faces in.”
