Another Midfielder on Wolves Radar
Wolves have had an active summer so far, selling key players like Matheus Cunha and Rayan Aït-Nouri. They recently signed Fer Lopez, a young talent who will hopefully bring some much-needed energy to the squad. After barely avoiding relegation last season, the pressure is high for Wolves to come back stronger. Now, with Rangers’ standout Nico Raskin emerging as their latest midfield target, the club looks set to add another important piece to a much bigger puzzle.
At just 23 years old, Nico Raskin has already established himself as a solid player at the Rangers since joining from Standard Liège in 2023. His hard work and dedication to the game earned him Rangers’ Player of the Season honors and even a call-up to Belgium's national team. With Wolves now lacking depth in midfield, Raskin could be a strong fit within the squad. While he’s still young, the presence of a leader like André to anchor the midfield and serve as a mentor could help accelerate his development. With Wolves known for developing young talent into regular starters, Raskin’s ceiling is incredibly high.
According to reports, Wolves have been monitoring Raskin for over 18 months and are now preparing to make a move. With two years remaining on his current contract, the Rangers aren’t under immediate pressure to sell, but a strong offer could easily sway them. Raskin is reportedly open to a Premier League move, and Wolves could provide both the playing time and platform he needs to grow. While other clubs like Aston Villa and Brighton are also interested, Raskin may find fewer in-game opportunities there. Wolves can easily give him a big role on the team, which is ideal for all young players.
As Wolves continue to reshape their squad ahead of the new season, adding a player like Nico Raskin could be a smart move. He fits the club’s vision of building around young, hungry talent, and his playing style aligns well with what Wolves currently lack in midfield. With the Premier League being the most competitive league in the world, finding players who can contribute immediately while still having room to grow is a rare challenge. If Wolves can pull off this deal, they’ll be one step closer to completing their puzzle and fighting to stay in the Premier League for another season.
