It is reported that the relegation of Wolves to the Championship makes José Sá's salary more affordable, as contracts in England often have clauses for wage reductions of up to 50% in case of relegation. Wolves will need to reduce their roster of high salaries, and José Sá is expected to be among the first to be available for transfer. It is mentioned that Sá would be unlikely to accept playing in the Championship at age 33. Olympiacos offers him the prospect of European competitions and title contention, and Sá has not hidden his attachment to Piraeus and the club's fans. A return could cost around 3-4 million euros, as Wolves will want to remove his contract from their expenses. Other possibilities include a one-year loan with Wolves covering his salary and an obligation for Olympiacos to buy him next summer, or an acquisition as a free agent if his contract is mutually terminated. It is noted that the involvement of agent Jorge Mendes could be a key factor, and Olympiacos would be the first destination if Mendes decides Sá's period of playing in England has concluded.

José Sá has been linked again with a possible return to Olympiakos, a scenario that has emerged partly due to the poor season his current club, Wolves, has experienced. Any move for the goalkeeper is dependent on Olympiakos making changes to their goalkeeping staff in the summer. Sá has made 19 appearances in the Premier League this season and his contract with Wolves is valid until 2027.
