Transfer Rumours - August 26

We are not saying they are true – just that they are out there.

WOLVES

Wolves hope to sign Dutch striker Paul Gladon - as a move for Angers midfielder Romain Saiss neared completion.

Heracles striker Gladon is believed to have held talks over a permanent move.

The 24-year-old is thought to have been at Compton Park today after Heracles accepted a bid from Wolves.

Braga defender Willy Boly has rejected a £6.8m move to Championship outfit Wolverhampton Wanderers.

Wolves have shown a lot of ambition in the transfer market following the club's takeover by wealthy Chinese group Fosun International.

Bury keeper Jack Ruddy is believed to be on his way to Wolves.

Ruddy, who has made one senior appearance for the Shakers, is expected to complete his move very shortly.

The goalkeeper becomes the latest Academy product to move up the leagues, following defender Matty Foulds' move to Everton last season.

Ruddy has spent the past week on trial with the Championship side, but Bury are standing firm on a price, understood to be a five-figure sum, with potential add-ons to increase it further.

WEST BROM

West Brom have sent officials to Spain to speak to Lucas Perez's representatives, and put forward a contract offer of €3m a season.

This is believed to be higher than Everton's offer, however Arsenal remain in the driving seat to sign the striker.

ASTON VILLA

Aston Villa target Patrick Bamford is joining Burnley on a season-long loan.

Reports claim that the Chelsea striker will snub a move to the Championship to join Sean Dyche's side and will compete for a place up front alongside Andre Gray and Sam Vokes.
