Wolves reject Leeds United bid for striker
Wolves have rejected a bid from Leeds United for Jorgen Strand Larsen, the Express & Star understands.
The striker is attracting interest from several clubs this month - including Nottingham Forest, West Ham and Crystal Palace - and fellow Premier League side Leeds have now had a bid turned down.
Wolves are under no pressure to sell and are not pushing to offload him in this transfer window, however they have always been open to sales this month for the right price, with relegation to the Championship likely.
It is understood the club would demand at least £40million to sanction Larsen's departure.
The 25-year-old initially joined Wolves on loan from Celta Vigo in 2024 before signing permanently after scoring 14 Premier League goals in his opening season.
Wolves paid a £2.5million loan fee and £23million permanent fee to acquire the Norwegian international, who was then the subject of interest from Newcastle in the summer.
The Magpies had two bids of £50million and £55million rejected by Wolves before Larsen signed a new deal at the club in late September.
But he has struggled to find his form this season and has scored just one Premier League goal, alongside a further five in cup competitions - including an FA Cup hat-trick against Shrewsbury Town.
