ONES TO WATCH

One transfer you may have missed through all the chaos of the January window was the signing of Pablo Sarabia to Wolves, because at just £4.5 million this signing represents true pound-for-pound value and is a reminder that there are still bargains to be had in this constantly inflated transfer market. He joins as a Spain international, with a modest nine goals from just 15 starts for his country, and a player with experience at Paris Saint Germain, Sevilla and Sporting Lisbon.

Pablo Sarabia

At only 30 years old, he can still offer lots of his qualities to a Wolves side in dire need for attacking refreshments, with only 12 goals scored in 20 Premier League games at the time of his signing, less than half of what Erling Haaland was able to manage on his own. This is a player who has played for some of Europe’s biggest teams and played in some of the biggest competitions, with six seasons worth of Champions League football, his experience will be priceless.

He will add flare and dynamism to a lacklustre Wolves attack, and perhaps more importantly, bring a vast amount of experience and knowhow to a team who are crying out for a truly elite forward. £4.5 million represents a true snip in the current market economy for a player who was able to manage 21 goal involvements in Portugal’s topflight last season, where in the same period, Antony who registered 12 goal involvements, was bought by Manchester United for £90 million.

The hierarchy at Wolves will be ecstatic with this piece of business and will hope he is able to help drag the club out of a relegation dogfight this season.
