"Just saw that Wolverhampton Wanderers are set to sign AZ Alkmaar’s left-back David Møller Wolfe, SK Brann academy graduate. He’s been one of the standout full-backs in the Eredivisie over the past ~3 seasons, so a move to a top league felt inevitable. And here it is.
While he’s not quite as unpredictable or attack-minded in the final third as Aït-Nouri, Wolfe brings a more measured, composed presence down the flank. He’s not a high-volume crosser or shooter, but when he does deliver, it’s usually with more accuracy and intent. More of a possession-safe operator than a flair-driven risk taker, but still contributes consistently in the attacking phase. Needs to work on his right foot though, turns to his left too much. But system-wise suits a team that’ll face a tough Premier League season.
The Norwegians’ a very effective ball carrier and thrives in overlapping runs, especially when paired with an inverted winger (or a wide 10 as in Wolves’ system) though he’s also capable of inverting and supporting midfield build-up when needed. Tactically disciplined and structurally sound, he offers a good pausa and accurate long balls to switch sides, great for Wolves’ counters.
In the defensive end Wolfe’s got excellent spacial awareness, aerial ability, and a strong physical presence. He reads the game well, uses his body smartly, and is dominant in 1v1 defensive duels. His engine is top-tier, you’ll get a full 90-minute shift from him every time
A full international with Norway, the 23-year old brings solid experience and leadership. Really composed and mature playstyle on the ball himself. Makes the right decisions in tight moments, doesn’t shy away from physical battles, and won’t let tricky wingers toy around. Makes fouls when needed, fuck around, find out. Does get some cards though. He’s got that dawg.. or Wolfe.. in him. Ok sorry.
Anyways, having been the direct successor to Milot Kerkez at AZ, Wolfe now gets his own chance to make an impact in England. A smart, hard-working full-back who could prove to be a very shrewd addition for Wolves."
Definitely does sound promising
