The British Football Fancast reported on the 7th (Korea time) 'Gary O'Neill is on the verge of losing his Wolverhampton star.
Wolverhampton striker Hwang Hee-chan recently raised the possibility of a transfer to Ligue 1 Marseille. France's L'Equipe said striker Hwang Hee-chan was included in the list of strikers drawn up by the leaders of Marseille, and manager Roberto Dezerbi also confirmed it.
Hwang Hee-chan left RB Leipzig in the summer of 2021 and joined Wolverhampton on loan with a full transfer option, going to the England stage. He has consistently been listed as a starter even though Wolverhampton has been under Bruno Raz, Julen Lopetegui and Gary O'Neill. In particular, the 2023-2024 season was a season of great significance for Hwang Hee-chan. Despite the period of absence due to injury, he scored 12 goals in 29 league games and scored double-digit points in the league.

Marseille is a prestigious French family. Although he ranked eighth in the league last season, he has consistently advanced to European competitions and has won the European Champions League. However, French Ligue 1 has a large capital difference from the English Premier League (EPL). Therefore, even if Hwang Hee-chan wants to be recruited, it is difficult to offer a large amount to Wolverhampton.
France's Foot Mercato 'Marceu is not in favour of signing Hwang Hee-chan. Wolverhampton spent 16 million euros (about 24 billion won) when recruiting. Now, the market value has increased to 25 million euros (about 37 billion won). There is no positive factor in Marseille.
The amount that Marseille is expected to offer as a transfer fee for Hwang Hee-chan is 16.9 million pounds (about 30 billion won). Wolverhampton's Molyneux News reported 'Marceille is expected to use the £16.9 million sale price of Iliman Ndiaye to recruit Hwang Hee-chan'

Football FanCast said 'Wolverhampton could lose a key striker. The player in question is Hwang Hee-chan. He has had a very impressive season, and this summer produced a result where the European elite targeted him. He has been included in Marseille's recruitment list, a move approved by Dezerbi. However, his value has not yet been officially announced. 'Considering his contract is due in 2028, his value could be higher.'"
Hwang Hee-chan is similar to Diogo Jota, a former Wolverhampton star. It will be similar to when Diogo Jota moved to Liverpool for 41 million pounds (about 73 billion won). Wolverhampton has an advantage over the sale of Hwang Hee-chan this summer. This is because there are still four years left on the contract. If the offer comes in properly, it's unlikely they won't sell it, but they have to do their best to keep him, he said, evaluating Wolverhampton's position on Hwang Hee-chan.
If Hwang Hee-chan moves to the estimated value of £41 million, he will record a transfer fee that is almost equivalent to 50 million euros (about 75 billion won) for Kim Min-jae, the highest transfer fee ever for a Korean player. However, it is difficult for Marseille, who is interested in Hwang Hee-chan, to pay such transfer fees unless they are EPL clubs and some mega-clubs.
Along with rumors of Hwang Hee-chan's transfer, attention was also paid to his value. As Hwang Hee-chan is highly regarded, it is likely that it will be difficult to persuade Wolverhampton with ordinary proposals to take him this summer.
