Wolves should keep an eye on the Begovic situation

Asmir Begovic has reportedly fallen out with Eddie Howe at Bournemouth.

The Bosnian stopper is supposedly facing an uncertain future at the Vitality Stadium after getting into a dispute with the English coach, according to The Daily Mail.

Apparently Begovic was unhappy with Howe’s decision to drop him from the starting XI in recent weeks.

The ex-Chelsea, Stoke City and Portsmouth goalkeeper hasn’t been seen since the 2-0 defeat to Everton three games ago, with Artur Boruc being preferred instead.

Club sources have apparently been keen to play down the incident.

A team that should be watching the situation carefully, is Wolverhampton Wanderers.

A fine Patricio back up

If the situation does not improve for Begovic, then Wolves should definitely consider making a move this summer.

Current Wolves number two John Ruddy has failed to convince when deputising for Rui Patricio.

The Englishman, signed in 2017, has made five cup appearances so far this term but arguably hasn’t shown himself to be the solid back up that’s required.

Against Shrewsbury Town most recently, Ruddy was at fault for two goals.

While not a patch on Patricio, Begovic would arguably provide Wolves with a solid number two option.

He’s chalked up 250 Premier League appearances so has fantastic experience, and is even a Premier League winner having been with Chelsea for their 2016/17 triumph.
