Wolves have announced the signing of Razak Boukari, winger from Rennes on a four year contract. He joins Tongo Doumbia in joining from the French club, for a reported fee of around £3m.
It's nice to see we have acted swiftly to replace Jarvis (Boukari will wear number seventeen too!), because it's clear what some of the problems were against Derby on Saturday. From videos and reports, Boukari is a quick, strong winger who likes to attack his full back.
Also joining is Georg Margreitter a centre back (yes, you read correctly) from Austria Vienna. Only 23, Georg has played at u21 level for Austria and a couple of years ago won the best young player in Austria award. You'd assume that he will go in next to Roger Johnson straight away, and with Stearman and maybe still Berra as back up I think we are okay in that area for now.
It doesn't look like we will be stopping there either. Stale has hinted at more signings this week and one player we've been strongly linked with (some sources saying he is almost a Wolves player) is Bakary Sako, a wide midfielder from St. Ettiene. With Hunt and Hammill allowed to leave, this makes perfect sense really as two wingers and young Forde isn't enouh for a long gruelling season.
What position or player would you like us to be looking at signing now? Comment below.
definitely a left back to replace wardy otherwise we are buying in the right places get rid berra and edwards what do you think
ReplyDeleteWe need a right back (Zubar is nowhere near good enough) and a creative midfielder. Maybe an out and out goal scorer, then jobs a good un.
ReplyDeleteBoukari reminds me of Jarvis in playing style. Good with the ball in feet, scores goals, set others up. Can't wait to see our two buys in action. I really hope Wolves sell Doyle to Villa so Nouble and Sigurdarson gets more playtime.
