An offer of around £30million was rejected over the weekend with Wolves thought to be demanding at least £35m before they will even consider parting with the 26-year-old.

Kilman is closing in on 100 Premier League appearances, is settled at Molineux and the club ideally want to keep him on the books.

It remains to be seen whether Napoli will return with a second, improved bid but it would require the Italian club or another suitor to match his valuation before Wolves would have a decision to make.

Reports yesterday claimed Kilman’s former club Maidenhead United may be due a portion of any fee due to a sell-on clause in the deal which saw him move to Molineux in 2018.
