Wolves reject £12m bid from Fulham for Portugal winger Ivan Cavaleiro

The Molineux outfit are keen to keep hold of their Portuguese winger, but that has not stopped Fulham trying following their promotion to the Premier League

WOLVES have turned down a £12 million bid from fellow promoted side Fulham for Ivan Cavaleiro, according to reports.

The Portugal winger was vital in the Molineux club's Championship title win, securing them a place in the Premier League.

The 24-year-old attacker did not miss a match in the English second tier last season and pickled up nine goals and 12 assists along the way as Wolves stormed to the league title.

Cavaleiro also claimed the Championship Player of the Month for November before finishing as runner-up three months later.

The Portugal international denied rumours last week that he was heading out of the Molineux outfit, tweeting: "Looking forward to start the season with my club #wolvesaywe."

And while Wolves will be keen to keep hold of Cavaleiro, that has not stopped them bringing in new players.

But the newspaper claims that the club will not be signing West Brom's Ahmed Hegazi, with the rumours linking the Egyptian defender to the Baggies' rivals have no substance.

Meanwhile, Wolves look increasingly likely to miss out on Portugal full-back Joao Cancelo as he heads to Juventus for a medical.
