Wolves in Talks for Striker Larsen Contract Including Release Clause

Wolverhampton Wanderers have rejected two bids exceeding £50 million from Newcastle United for their 25-year-old striker Jorgen Strand Larsen during the summer transfer window, with chairman Jeff Shi firmly stating the player was not for sale. Following these bids, Wolves have initiated contract talks with Strand Larsen to offer improved terms, aiming to retain him as a key figure in their Premier League squad. While early reports suggested a minimum release clause might be included, recent updates indicate it is unlikely that such a clause will be part of the new deal, which would be welcomed by fans. The club values Larsen highly and is determined to keep him despite interest from Newcastle, who shifted focus to other targets after failing to secure him. Strand Larsen himself reportedly agreed personal terms with Newcastle and expressed a desire to move, but Wolves’ stance and communication ensured he remained with the team. The contract negotiations are expected to be straightforward, with confidence that an agreement will be reached soon, securing Larsen’s future at Wolves with higher wages and clarity about his career path.
