Wolves splashed £16m to bring Cutrone to Molineux from Italian giants AC Milan in the summer.

The 21-year-old came through the ranks at Milan, idolising forwards Filippo Inzaghi, Marco Borriello, Marco van Basten and George Weah.

But after poring over footage of those Milan attackers he is now researching Wolves’ record goal scorer Bull.

And he is eager to pick the 306-goal forward's brain as he aims to add to his two goal tally against Slovan Bratislava in the Europa League on Thursday night.

He told the Daily Mail: “I had posters of former Italy strikers Filippo Inzaghi and Marco Borriello. I watched YouTube videos of Marco van Basten and George Weah.

“Since coming to Wolves, I’ve seen videos of Steve Bull, of what he did at Wolves and (for England at) Italia 90. It would be great to meet him.”
