Wolverhampton Wanderers have slapped a £15million price tag on Hugo Bueno amid interest from Fiorentina, sources have told Football Insider.

The Italian side are aiming to move swiftly to beat other clubs to the 23-year-old left-back, as they hope to secure him for a bargain price.

The defender has attracted interest from a number of clubs this summer after the Old Gold’s relegation to the Championship.

Bueno is contracted at Wolves until 2028, but their return to the Championship has left his future in doubt.

The left-back played 35 Premier League matches for the club last season as they finished bottom of the Premier League.

Bueno had previously received praise for his loan spell at Feyenoord in the 2024-25 campaign, where the club reached the Champions League round of 16.

Hugo Bueno departure opens up bigger role for David Moller Wolfe 

If Bueno does leave Molineux this summer, the most obvious successor to the left-back spot would be David Moller Wolfe.

The 24-year-old signed for Wolves last summer, but struggled to establish himself in the starting XI, and only made 11 Premier League starts.

In recent weeks, Wolfe has made headlines in the 2026 World Cup while playing for Norway, and picked up an assist in their 4-1 win over Iraq.

As a result, Wolves may look to simply slot the Norway international back into the starting XI if Bueno were to depart.

However, it remains to be seen what Cesar Peixoto’s first-team plans are this summer after his recent appointment at Molineux.

What other business could Wolves do this summer?

Football Insider has exclusively revealed that Wolves are working on a deal to re-sign Adama Traore this summer transfer window.

The 30-year-old winger is currently a free agent after he was released by West Ham United at the end of the 2025-26 campaign.

Sources have indicated that Wolves are exploring a free transfer for Adama, but face strong competition for him, given his availability.

The winger previously had a highly successful spell at Molineux, between 2018 and 2023, where he helped the club achieve back-to-back seventh-place finishes in the Premier League and helped them reach the quarter-finals of the Europa League.

However, it remains to be seen if Wolves are able to get a deal for Adama over the line in the coming months.
