January 2020 transfer window

Not sure he quite meant this part

His talent, however, is undeniable, and he, alongside Joao Felix, is widely regarded as potentially Benfica’s biggest asset for the future.

Unless there's another Joao Felix?
 
MGW partly suffers by starting early. If he were a 22 year old playing his first few games, like say Kilman is, people would love him.
 
MGW treated very unfairly by Wolves fans, even David Davis, Jack Price were given much more leeway despite have a fraction of his ability. I know we are playing at a much better level (Davis lauded end of 11/12 PL days) but to see that much criticism of a player of his age + with only 7 starts under Nuno is a joke. Seems like they want the finished product straight away and not willing to let the player grow. No point sending him on loan as he has more than enough ability to play as cover + with a short squad not much sense. Also pretty sure he's one of only attack minded centre mids we have.
Dwight McNeil for example, similar age- wanted by several clubs- clearly looks like a player with a lot of abilty atm but stats wise its not spectacular and he's is a guaranteed starter in Burnley's xi. MGW is clearly talented, just needs patience- with Nuno + his staff around him I'm sure we should get a top player out of him, that too through our own academy.
 
Good find!

Justin Hubner (16) trades youth FC Den Bosch for Wolverhampton Wanderers
16-year-old Justin Hubner leaves FC Den Bosch for Wolverhampton Wanderers. The centre-back is considered the greatest talent of the Bossche youth academy.

Hubner already did an internship with Bologna, Italy last summer, but then chose to stay with FC Den Bosch. There he played in the U17 for the past six months and has been training with the main force a few times.

Hubner also had an offer from FC Den Bosch to stay with the club from his hometown, but he now chooses to take on the adventure in England. The Wolves pay a training fee to FC Den Bosch. Manager football affairs Bert Ruijsch of FC Den Bosch confirms the youth player's transition, but does not want to disclose the amount of the training fee.

I don't speak Dutch so blame bing translate if it's off :)

Oh boy if we sign a 16 year old without announcing anything else *immediately* some people are going to blow their top

-edit- just to be clear, not talking about anyone on here. The usual twitter hysterics, mostly
 
If we dont get a first team signing soon, peoples feelings on here are going to get seriously hurt, we are already overly defensive and at each others throats at the smallest disagreement

It's not like youth signings and first team squad signings are mutually exclusive
 
Some bollocks on twitter about a German midfielder called Maximilian Eggestein. I'm not sure if it's all bullshit though
 
It feels just way too random to be a wind up, if it is they've put a lot of effort into it
