Decision to be made on Chiquinho's Wolves future
Wolves winger Chiquinho will be given a chance to prove himself in pre-season before any decision is made on his future, the Express & Star understands.
The 24-year-old has been linked with a move to Portuguese side Sporting, with reports suggesting he will make a £4million move, but it is understood no conversations have taken place over a sale.
Instead, the attacker will join Gary O'Neil's squad for pre-season training, where he will be given an opportunity to impress.
If O'Neil likes what he sees and the player fits into the culture Wolves are building in the dressing room, then he could stay for the 2024/25 season.
However, the club will also not rule out a sale or loan if O'Neil decides Chiquinho is not part of his plans.
If he does depart permanently, it is also understood that any sale will bring in more than the reported £4million, considering Wolves paid £3million to sign him from Estoril in January 2022.
Chiquinho's Wolves future will heavily depend on how he fits into the dressing room, with O'Neil making it clear he will only accept players in the squad that want to be at the club.
Last season, Chiquinho originally joined Stoke on loan for the season but after just four appearances he was recalled and sent on loan to Portuguese side Famalicao for the rest of the campaign.
The winger did not get on with then Stoke boss Alex Neil, before making the switch to his homeland.
His Wolves future will now depend on whether he wants to play for the shirt and can impress enough in pre-season to convince O'Neil he should stay in the Premier League.
He did well at Famalicao, however, where he managed five goals and four assists in 27 league games.
