Wolves Leave Door Open to £40m Jorgen Strand Larsen Sale as Forest Prepare Bid

A finance analyst argues a January sale would preserve value given rising relegation risk.

Overview

  • Wolves head coach Rob Edwards refused to rule out a January exit after Strand Larsen scored a hat-trick in the FA Cup against Shrewsbury.
  • Football Insider reports Wolves are prepared to accept an offer of about £40m if their survival prospects deteriorate later in the window.
  • Nottingham Forest have contacted the striker and plan to submit an offer, positioning themselves among the leading suitors this month.
  • Tottenham, Everton and Crystal Palace are also interested, while West Ham are viewed as unlikely after withdrawing from the race.
  • Wolves sit bottom of the Premier League with seven points from 21 games after rejecting bids near £55–60m in the summer and seeing the striker's league form dip this season.
