According to reports in The Mirror, Wolverhampton Wanderers attacker Ivan Cavaleiro, rated at £9m by Transfermarkt, is a summer transfer target for their Premier League rivals Huddersfield Town.

What's the word, then?

Well, The Mirror says that the Terriers are in need of adding some more firepower to their team ahead of their second season in the English top flight, and the Yorkshire club have made a move to bring the Portuguese forward to the John Smith's Stadium.

The Mirror says that despite Wolves, whose £11m move for a midfielder would hint at Nuno Santo making a big formation change for their Premier League campaign, signing the 24-year-old in a £7m deal from Monaco two years ago and him being a regular last term, the west Midlands outfit's ambitious owners are ready to sell him this summer in order to make way for new signings.

How did Cavaleiro do during the 2017/18 season?

He impressed.

The 24-year-old played a key role as Wolves ran away with the Championship title, scoring nine goals and providing a further 12 assists in 42 league games.

The Portuguese attacker primarily played on the right wing, and his trickery and speed from the flank ensured that he caused plenty of left-backs big problems last term.

Should Wolves sell him?

It would certainly be something of a controversial decision if they did let him go considering how much of a key man he was for them last season.

However, his sale could be really positive news for the Molineux faithful, as it perhaps suggests that if the club are ready to move on one of their key players, it's because their ambitious owners believe they can get an upgrade on the 24-year-old – perhaps even one that proves to be a marquee addition.
