Wolverhampton Wanderers manager, Kenny Jackett, has insisted that
there is no concrete interest in young defender, Dominic Iorfa Jnr.
The Nigerian youngster has a release clause of 15 million pounds amid
speculations that several top English Premier League clubs want to snap
him up from Championship side, Wolverhampton Wanderers.
The 20-year-old has been linked with several Premier League clubs, including South London side, Crystal Palace.
However, Jackett has played down a potential summer exit for Iorfa.
“There’s been enough speculation but we’ve had no bids or inquiries from clubs, which is good,” he said.
“The release clause for Iorfa is put at around 15 million pounds,” a source said.
“Wolves are not ready to sell, but if the offer is good, they will not have any option but to do so.”
Wolves manager Kenny Jackett has already declared his club is
determined to hang on to the highly-rated defender as speculations mount
surrounding his future at Molineux.
Jackett said no club have made a bid for the Nigerian youngster.
“I wouldn’t want to see him go,’’ said Jackett.
“I think we need players in to improve us, rather than letting players go.
“I’m sure everybody at Wolves feels the same way as I do.
“We haven’t had any bids and, like everyone at Wolves, we want to
improve the team and build the team around Dominic, rather than
replacing him.
“Whenever you have players doing well, there’s always that type of speculation.”
Iorfa is tied to Wolves until the summer of 2019, having put pen to paper on a new deal last November.
