Overview
- The Guardian reports negotiations are progressing for 21-year-old Pablo, with Gil Vicente expected to seek about €20m.
- West Ham cooled on Jørgen Strand Larsen after informal checks revealed Wolves’ valuation and the player’s wage demands, despite earlier plans to table a bid.
- Wolves are open to January offers and Crystal Palace have registered interest, following Newcastle’s rejected bids of £50–55m in the summer.
- Strand Larsen has struggled this season, scoring three times for the league’s bottom club, who are winless and on three points after 19 games.
- With Niclas Füllkrug joining AC Milan on loan, Nuno Espírito Santo is short up front, has used Jarrod Bowen and Crysencio Summerville centrally, and West Ham are also moving for Fulham’s Adama Traoré.
