Wolverhampton, whose feet have fallen on fire, is difficult to expect many changes in the upcoming January transfer market.

The British Telegraph reported on the 21st (Korea time) "Wolverhampton has prioritized recruiting a new centre-back in the January transfer window to improve its hole-in-the-hole defense. Wolverhampton is planning ahead with funds to bring in the centre-back on a full recruitment or loan in January," the report said.

It is fortunate that Wolverhampton, who currently has the most runs in the league, has started recruiting center backs to improve its defense, but Wolverhampton is found to have no more funds to recruit despite facing relegation.



The Telegraph reports "The transfer policy has changed due to Yersson Mosquera's injury. In January, everyone agreed that recruiting a new center back was the top priority. However, Wolverhampton is still working on a tight budget, so we don't expect further recruitment"

It is true that recruiting center backs is the most urgent. With freshman Mosquera unlikely to return this season due to a knee injury, there are only three remaining centre-backs - Craig Dawson, Santiago Bueno and Toti Gomes. Bueno was also reportedly injured during the A-match in November.

Wolverhampton manager Gary O'Neill tried to change to a four-back-based tactic earlier this season, but failed. With the disastrous result of one draw and six losses while using four-back tactics until the seventh round, it returned to the 3-4-3 formation that it had used since last season. Since then, Wolverhampton has been revived, with one win, two draws and one loss in the last four games.



The variable is that there are only three first-team center backs. As soon as even one person is injured, he or she should change to a four-back system or use a player who is not a center back as a center back. Recruitment of a center back is essential because there are inevitable variables in the operation of the season.

It is not just necessary to recruit a center back. Wolverhampton also needs wing-back resources and reinforcement of the offense. Hwang Hee-chan is returning now, but Pedro Netu, who moved to Chelsea, is also feeling a void. Wolverhampton needs reinforcement in all directions, but it is still difficult to consider changes due to financial difficulties.

Wolverhampton has only sold key players from the summer transfer market in the 2021-2022 season, and is struggling to supply and demand players. This is to comply with the profitability and sustainability rules implemented by the English Premier League (EPL). In fact, Wolverhampton has a severe fiscal deficit.



According to the soccer statistics media OPTA analysis, Wolverhampton's current relegation probability is over 40%. It is a situation in which it has to be squeezed only with resources that are in the crisis of relegation. It doesn't seem easy to break through the crisis.
