As far as what I've read on Tolu to Fiorentina, yes they offered to take Tolu on loan. Wolves want a sale or a loan with an obligation to buy. Or a loan with targets to hit to make it a mandatory purchase, but Fiorentina didn't want that. That's why Wolves refused; if just a loan, then the season after he comes back at Wolves.
Good on Wolves for once sticking to their guns. He knows he's not going to play, so he either goes to Genoa or Ajax if reports are true. Tolu turned down a chance to go to Trabzonspor, so now he's running out of opportunities. I don't think Genoa can afford him; that leaves Ajax and he gets European football. It's in his court.

Absolutely right, Dmac. Also, it seems somewhat ironic that Tolus' behaviour since then has demonstrated why the club wanted a mandatory fee agreed. This is Hoever all over again; club after club had said he's got a poor attitude, and here we are, all these years on, trying to get rid. ?

Bullys, it's Wolves' transfer policy, another last minute signing, 24mill I think, because everything is left to the end. Look at this window now, yes Jiminez and Trippier, then Raffki said what, since nothing. Trying to get rid of deadwood, but nobody wants them, I've seen people on here with Tommy Doyle.
I'm sorry, the guy is not good enough, neither is Munetsi or Traore, but what are Wolves doing, nowt. Another disaster of a window, because nobody wants the crap Wolves have, and another manager gets f*** by Wolves.

Probably best to reserve judgement until the window is shut.

It's not a hard transfer window, but Wolves are making it impossible.
Gk Johansson, Stoke.
CB Alleyne, Citeh, loan.
Cb Arrey-Mbi, Braga, loan with obligation.
CB Webster, Free.
CM Casaderes Gil, Vincente.
FW Andre Luis, Olympiacos.
FW Varela, Benfica, Loan.
FW Pablo, West Ham.
FW Monga, Citeh, Loan.
FW Derry, Chelsea, Loan.
I get your point on the CM, I think Traore or Doyle would do a job in the Championship.
Both are pretty prone to injuries, though.
I would sell all our cbs from the first team last season. And I would sell Krejci (just in case you thought I'd keep him), Hwang, Jackson, Bellagarde, Tolu, Munetsi.
The options above are options, and they should be chased now.

Other options
CB Veltman, free agent, very versatile.
CB Boly, free agent (I know, but for squad depth and leadership).
CB Batth, free agent (I know, but for squad depth, leadership and a Wolf).
CB/CDM Dendoncker, versatile and knows the club.
CM Gustavo Sa, Famalicao.
FW Afonso Patrao, Braga (similar to Jota when he joined).
FW Vivaldo Semedo, Watford.
My picks would be
Johansson.
Trippier, Alleyne, Arrey-Mbi, H Bueno.
Casares, Andre.
Andre Luis, Mane, Petrao.
Raul.
Subs
Bentley, Armstrong, Webster, Edozie, Lima, Wolfe, Traore, Monga.
