Wolverhampton Wanderers are reportedly interested in signing Nice forward Evann Guessand (h/t Sky Sports).
They are in the market for a new attacker following the departure of Matheus Cunha to Manchester United.
Manager Vitor Pereira is seeking to bolster his attacking options ahead of the next season.
Guessand has emerged as a top target. The 23-year-old was in excellent form in Ligue 1 this season.
He finished the campaign with 13 goals and 10 assists, making him one of the standout young forwards in the division.
Guessand would be a useful option for Wolves
Guessand can play as a winger and a striker. His versatility makes him a valuable attacking option.
He generally operates in the right half-space, using his speed to make runs in behind defenders and create chances.
Despite his tall frame, Guessand is a strong dribbler and shows great control in tight areas. His mix of physical and technical ability is rare.
Wolves are ready to spend around £25 million to bring the Ivorian international to Molineux.
The deal would represent a significant investment but also a smart move, considering his age and potential.
Brighton & Hove Albion are also believed to be weighing up a possible move for the forward.
However, Wolves are currently leading the chase. If they can secure the deal, it could be one of their most important signings of the summer transfer window.
Guessand could help Wolves improve their attacking threat and provide fresh energy in the final third of the pitch.
