Following Wolves' relegation, Porto were reportedly heavily linked with 22-year-old Spanish attacking midfielder Fer López during the summer. It had been suggested that the player had communicated his desire for a fresh start, with Benfica and his former club Celta Vigo also reportedly interested. However, Wolves decided to retain the playmaker and deny his wish to leave. López, who has 4 caps and 1 goal for Spain U21, joined Wolves in July 2025 and is under contract until 2030. According to Transfermarkt, his current market value is €16.00m.
