Wolves value the striker at around €20–25 million after a successful loan spell in La Liga with Las Palmas, scoring 10 goals and registering three assists. Advertisement Reports suggest that there is strong interest from the Bundesliga, with Borussia Dortmund, VfB Stuttgart, RB Leipzig, Eintracht Frankfurt and Wolfsburg all monitoring his situation.
