AliousWolves Set to Launch Over €20M Bid for Flamengo Sensation as Summer Rebuild Continues
Wolverhampton Wanderers are preparing to make a major move in the transfer market as reports from Brazil suggest the Premier League side are readying an official bid exceeding €20 million for highly rated Flamengo forward Wallace Yan.
The 20-year-old Brazilian is the latest name on Wolves’ radar as they continue to reshape their squad under new manager Vítor Pereira.
The club’s summer overhaul kicked into high gear after Matheus Cunha’s big-money move to Manchester United, which reportedly brought in over €73 million.
With that windfall, Wolves have already taken steps to reinforce their frontline by finalizing Jorgen Strand Larsen’s transfer and securing Fer Lopez from Celta Vigo.
However, their business is far from over.
With Portuguese forward Gonçalo Guedes likely to leave, Wolves are actively targeting another attacking option—and Wallace Yan has emerged as a leading candidate.
According to Brazilian journalist Bruno Lemos, Wolves are expected to submit a formal offer for Yan in the coming days.
The proposed fee will reportedly exceed €20 million, underlining the club’s serious interest in the versatile forward.
Yan, who is comfortable playing as a central striker, attacking midfielder, or on the left wing, has been impressing with his performances in Flamengo’s youth and senior setups.
Though he has primarily featured for Flamengo’s Under-20s, Yan has already made 18 first-team appearances, scoring six goals and providing three assists.
His mix of raw potential and positional flexibility makes him an appealing option for Wolves as they look to inject youthful energy and depth into their attacking ranks.
The Molineux outfit has a track record of recruiting from Brazil in recent windows.
Their first-team squad already includes Brazilian talents like João Gomes, Pedro Lima, and the newly signed André from Fluminense.
That familiarity with Brazilian players and culture could help ease Yan’s transition to life in England, should the transfer go through.
As Wolves push forward with their recruitment plans, all eyes will be on Flamengo’s response to the expected bid—and whether Wallace Yan becomes the next Brazilian star to light up the Premier League.
