Wolverhampton Wanderers
Wolverhampton Wanderers were promoted to the Premier League after winning the Championship in 2017/18. Wolves are the oldest club in the Premier League and it will be their fourth season in the top flight since their relegation in 2011/12.
- Stadium: Molineux (Stadium)
- Stadium Capacity: 31,700
- Location: Wolverhampton (the Black Country)
- Founded: 1877
- Nickname: Wolves
- Manager: Bruno Lage
- Kit: Gold shirt and socks, black shorts
Wolverhampton Wanderers was formed in 1877 and was also one of twelve clubs that created the first-ever football league in 1888. Throughout its history, Wolves have played most of their football in the top two divisions of English football. Here are some of the highlights:
- First Division Champions: 1953/54, 1957/58, 1958/59
- FA Cup Winners: 1893, 1908, 1949, 1960
- League Cup Winners: 1974, 1980
- UEFA Cup Runners-up: 1972
- Premier League best finish (7th): 2018/19
The Manager
Bruno Lage was confirmed as Wolves' new manager in June 2021 following the departure of his Portuguese compatriot, Nuno Espiritu Santo. Lage previously managed Benfica in Portugal and led them to the league title in 2018/19. Wolves fans will hope that he will have success managing a squad with a strong Portuguese influence.
Three to Watch
The Wolves manager is not the only Portuguese influence on the Wolves squad. Here are three players to watch out for in the Premier League this season:
Ruben Neves
Wolves paid Porto a club record fee for Neves in June 2017. He hasn’t let anyone down. He was named Wolves Player of the Season and scored the goal of the season in the Championship (v Derby County). The 21-year-old from Mozelos in Portugal is an exciting attacking midfielder who likes to take a shot from long-range.
Adama Traore
Traore is an exciting winger from Spain. Traore is one of the fastest players in the Premier League and one of the best dribblers.
Matheus Nunes
Wolverhampton Wanderers smashed their transfer record when they signed the Portugal International from Sporting Lisbon. Nunes has been described as one of the best players in Portugal and will be an exciting addition in Wolves' midfield.
Prediction 2021/2022: 14th

I can't say that I'm a fan, but I'm used to seat and watch some Wolves matches in the Premier League. I like their football style: high intensity and a tough mentality brought by Nuno Espirito Santo and his portuguese players majority. But I also think they lost a lot selling Diogo Jota to Liverpool. This season (2020/2021) I just hope that they can manage to escape relegation, as their campaign is not that good as it was last season.

Wolves are one of the best teams playing football in England during the recent years.
I consider them the dark horse of the Premier League.
My favourite Wolves players are Raul Jimenez , Matt Doherty and the beast Adama Troare.
I think they will end up this season in a UEFA Europa League position.

I'd never heard about Wolverhampton before, but I really liked the stadium and uniform. Wolves's shield is very cool too.
Rui Patrício is a fantastic goalkeeper. Unfortunately they don't have any brazilian player. I think that they will finish in 10th.

RafaelRC, Wolves in fact do have one Brazilian player, Léo Bonatini, who started out at Cruzeiro but has played outside Brazil most of his career.
The first half of last season he played excellently for Wolves in the Championship and scored a lot of goals, but for some reason he really went off the boil in the second half of the season and stopped scoring. I like him, but I think he will be a squad player at best this season.
