Wolves have reportedly made an approach for Burnley midfielder Josh Brownhill, and are set to test the Clarets’ resolve with a bid.
Wanderers have just two weeks left in the window now, and just two new faces have come in so far.
Tom King and Matt Doherty have come in on frees.
But Wolves have been struggling to make more additions given the club’s financial situation.
Wolves need to turn a significant profit, and it is thought that the club need more players sales on top of the handful that have already left.
Daniel Podence and Jonny Castro Otto are both up for sale.
But it is being reported today that Wolves could be set to bid for Burnley star Brownhill…
Wolves eyeing Burnley star Josh Brownhill again
TEAMtalk have reported today that Wolves have no made an approach for Brownhill.
It is suggested that a bid could be forthcoming from the club, for a player they have long admired.
Brownhill only has one year left on his contract now at Turf Moor.
It is stated that there is a strong possibility he could be sold, despite manager Vincent Kompany being keen to keep him.
Brownhill – who scored seven goals and made 10 assists last term – was actually left out of Burnley’s first game of the season against Manchester City last week.
Currently there is no mention of any asking price set by Burnley.
Brownhill would be a solid signing if Wolves can scrap together the cash
We shall see if this goes anywhere, but Brownhill seems to be a player Wolves have been linked with on and off for some time now.
Perhaps there is a deal to be done, with the player only having a year left.
Him being left out against City might suggest that he could be close to departing.
The Clarets recently signed Sander Berge, and he is direct competition for Brownhill.
Brownhill would be a decent addition to the squad. He was named on the shortlist for PFA Championship Player of the Season last term.
But the most important thing for O’Neil is for a new centre-back to arrive.

Three top PL clubs now interested in ‘outstanding’ £10m Wolves star, including Liverpool
Liverpool and two other top Premier League clubs have reportedly identified Wolves midfielder Mario Lemina as a potential target, with just two weeks left in the summer transfer window.
Wolves are currently looking to sell a couple more players before the window closes.
It has been claimed that Daniel Podence and Jonny Castro Otto are the two most like exits.
And fans are hoping that one or two new faces might walk through the door.
But of course, the financial situation right now is tricky, so who knows how successful Wolves will be on that front.
But this evening, a shock rumour has emerged about interest from Liverpool in Lemina…
And actually, the Gabon international is appreciated by two other unnamed top Premier League sides. It is though Lemina’s display against Manchester United on Monday, which led Dave Edwards to brand him ‘outstanding’, has drawn attention to him.
There are also a number of clubs in the Saudi Pro League who like Lemina.
The publication add that Lemina is currently happy at Molineux.
There is no mention if Liverpool are planning to actually bid for Lemina.
Of course, the Reds recently missed out on Moises Caicedo to Chelsea. And the Blues could also land Romeo Lavia, who was another target for Liverpool.
Absolutely no chance Wolves sell Lemina
Wolves fans are likely to get a good laugh out of this particular link.
There is absolutely no chance Wanderers will be selling Lemina in the next two weeks. Surely
Unless Liverpool are about to offer an astronomical fee, and Lemina pushes for the exit, it just won’t happen.
The 29-year-old is simply too important for Wanderers.
He’s only been at the club since January, after signing for just under £10 million from Nice.
But Lemina is already one of Wolves’ best players, and is now part of a new leadership group at Molineux.
If this player is sold, Wolves officials can probably expect a very toxic atmosphere indeed at Molineux. He is simply that important to the team
