Wolves are planning a swoop for Stoke goalkeeper Jack Butland, a reported Liverpool target, when the transfer window opens.
According to a report from the Express, Nuno Esperito Santo is lining up a £35 million move for the England international and he will make a bid should Stoke get relegated.
Wolves were recently crowned winners of the Championship after a tremendous season which saw them stay at the top of the pile since November.
Esperito Santo’s side intend to show they are ready for the new competitive season by adding top Premier League quality to their squad.
Reports suggest that Liverpool are interested in acquiring his services in the summer and West Ham could join the race if they manage to secure their Premier League status.
Although his side are facing a tough test escaping relegation, Butland has been one of their better players this season.
Butland is also in contention to be England’s number one in Russia for the World Cup and clubs are aiming to get the deal done before he jets off with the national team.
