Wolverhampton Wanderers have reportedly been offered AC Milan striker Andre Silva ahead of the summer window despite only just completing a permanent deal for Raul Jimenez – and Wolves fans have reacted on Twitter.

Silva, 23, joined Spanish side Sevilla on a season-long loan spell from Milan last summer. He has been rather mediocre, scoring 11 goals in 40 league and cup outings.

He began the season in excellent form, scoring nine goals. But he has only found the back of the net twice since the turn of the year, scoring in a La Liga clash against Levante in January – which was his last goal.

Italian outlet CalcioMercato have claimed Wolves, AS Monaco and Valencia are all interested, and have been offered the 33-time Portugal international. All three clubs have strong connections with super agent Jorge Mendes.

Wolves have been in excellent form, partnering Jimenez with Diogo Jota up front in a rare example of a club using a two-man strike force. Normally, managers opt to use one striker in the modern game.

But Wolves have need options up front as Nuno Espirito Santo likes to play with two strikers and that could be the reason why many supporters have urged their club to bring Silva to Molineux as competition.
