And Wolves, who finished 16th in England's top flight last season, have been closely tracking Raskin's progress for over 18 months, claims RecordSport.
It is said that they are 'set' to enter the bidding for the 24-year-old.
Matt Jackson, who was recently appointed director of player recruitment and development at Molineux, reportedly believes that the Rangers man is ready to handle the step up in level from the Scottish top flight to the Premier League.
Raskin currently has two years left on his Ibrox deal.
"Look, I've been enjoying myself this season and it's not so often that you can enjoy yourself in a club," he said towards the end of last campaign.
"I'm really happy here. I've got two more seasons in my contract. So as long as the club wants me, I'll be here and then we'll see what happens."

Conor Coady breaks Rangers transfer cover as Russell Martin now knows unseen benefit he will bring to Ibrox

The defender is high up on Martin and sporting director Kevin Thelwell's shopping list this summer Rangers target Conor Coady has broken his silence with a Leicester City exit gathering pace. Record Sport broke the story that the the Light Blues have asked the Foxes about his availability with Rangers sporting director Kevin Thelwell a huge fan of the England international after previously bringing him to Everton. The 32-year-old still has a year left on his contract at Leicester but after their relegation from the Premier League and uncertainty over Ruud van Nistelrooy's long-term future he faces a decision on his future. While Wolves are also said to be keen on Coady, he appears to have put a decision on his future on the back-burner to take on punditry duties for the Club World Cup. He was on hand for DAZN to break down Real Madrid's clash with Mexican giants CF Pachuca alongside Juan Pablo Angel and Luis Garcia. And he offered Russell Martin an insight on the tactical insight he could be getting if the Scottish Premiership giants can get a deal over the line. Coady also hinted at his love of attacking full-backs - a system often deployed by Martin - as gushed over Trent Alexander-Arnold. Asked if he preferred his defenders on the "under lap or over lap" he said: "I think someone like him can do both. "I think it is going to be really interesting, he likes to come inside Trent. I think developing the relationship with Arda Güler will be so important for Real Madrid this season. "It's really, really good for Real Madrid that they have got him going forward this season." Martin is looking to add to his squad in the coming days and has already lined up a loan move to sign Max Aarons from Bournemouth. New recruit Lyall Cameron is set to miss Rangers' return to pre-season - as exclusively revealed by Record Sport - while free agent Kwame Poku is also high up on the agenda after leaving Peterborough.

Bob MacIntyre ends Travelers in stunning style to make more key Ryder Cup moves as he sets immediate goal

Scottish star delivers final flourish at TPC River Highlands to end seven-week US run in style Buoyant Bob MacIntyre delivered a searing sign-off from his seven-week sequence in the States as he finished with a fabulous flourish at the Travelers Championship. The Scottish star completed his latest impressive spell on the PGA Tour with a brilliant late-Sunday burst to boost his finale at TPC River Highlands. ‌ MacIntyre played his last four holes of his tournament in four-under par to card a Sunday 66 and surge up the final standings in Connecticut with his best round of the week. ‌ Understandably, after such an epic performance, he was unable to recreate the scintillating magic of Oakmont the previous week and get into title contention as he had done when coming within a whisker of winning the US Open before being dramatically pipped at the death by winner JJ Spaun. But the Oban star still delivered mostly-strong work before the thrilling finale which has secured another positive step forward in the race for the FedEx Cup play-offs and, more crucially, the The Ryder Cup team. MacIntyre's Oakmont display rocketed him to fourth place in the European List and he cemented that excellent effort by banking more valuable points in Cromwell. Staring the week, the Tartan ace was one place behind Shane Lowry and one ahead of Sepp Straka in the List heading into the tournament and finished well ahead of both the Irishman and the Austrian in the closing positions at the Travelers to make more key ground. The 28-year-old went into the 28th and final competitive round of his gruelling seven-successive week spell on the two-under par mark and exchanged shots with the course to stay on that number through 14 holes of his final effort before the flying late flurry. MacIntyre first jumped forward with a chip-in eagle three on his 15th, the par-five sixth on the course as he started from 10th tee due to weather delays and restructured tee-times, to lift his position and backed it up immediately with a long-birdie putt at the next to stretch to five-under par. ‌ Following a par on his penultimate hole, MacIntyre concluded with another birdie at his last hole to cap the week and the lengthy spell of events in perfect fashion. The Scot's work has seen him take in the Truist Championship, PGA Championship, Charles Schwab Challenge, Memorial, RBC Canadian Open and US Open before this Travalers and MacIntyre will now return home for a short break before the defence of his Genesis Scottish Open title and The Open Championship at Royal Portrush the following week. Former Ryder Cup star David Howell is convinced the Scot can have a strong run in Northern Ireland having come sixth at the course in 2019 in his debut Open. He said: 'Yes [Scottie] Scheffler is going to be the favourite for that Championship, of course. But he is made for links golf, Bob MacIntyre. And he has proved to himself last week that he can win a Major because, when he had the chance, he did everything right. So he'll have his own expectations to deal with, but surely we'll have a good performance from him.' MacIntyre made it clear in the immediate aftermath of Oakmont that he isn't shying away from the Major challenge and admitted it has handed additional belief as he said: 'There's no reason why I can't win a major championship in my career and that's my goal now. I said I wanted to win the Scottish Open and I got that. I just want to win Majors now.'

Shinty: Oban Camanachd storm to victory in Glasgow Celtic Society Challenge Cup final

Oban Camanachd flexed their muscles, displaying the depth of their fully fit squad, before running out 6-1 winners over Kyles Athletic in the Scottish Sea Farms Glasgow Celtic Society Challenge Cup final at Peterson Park. Daniel MacVicar's shot low across the keeper from the right to put the Oban side ahead before Malcolm Clark touched Lorne Dickie's hit-in home to make it 2-0 at the turnaround. James Pringle lost his marker as he ran left before pulling a goal back, but Ross Macmillan sprinted onto Daniel MacVicar's ball forward to beat keeper Iain MacFarlane to make it 3-1. Substitute Daniel Maccuish and Ross Campbell put gloss on the win. Daniel Maccuish juggled the ball by defender and keeper for a brilliant individual effort before Ross Campbell hammered home two fine strikes from the left. Oban Camanachd captain Daniel MacVicar was outstanding throughout, and he stepped forward to collect shinty's oldest trophy from Glasgow Celtic Society president Donald Fletcher. This was Oban Camanachd's third successive Celtic success, their longest winning run since they took south shinty's main prize for eight successive seasons between 1987 and 1994. Oban Camanachd boss Daniel Cameron has now won this trophy as player, captain and manager and he said: 'I knew we had the depth of squad today and that's something we haven't had this season. 'To have the luxury of bringing on a Scottish international like Daniel MacCuish shows where the squad is at just now. 'At the start of the season, people said we'd struggle after losing 6 or 7 players, but we'll let people talk. We have our own in-house goals, and we'll keep them to ourselves, but they will be our focus.' Kingussie will meet Newtonmore in the Artemis Macaulay Cup semi-finals after both won their last-eight ties. Dylan Borthwick gave Kingussie an early lead at Lovat before Greg Matheson levelled. Dylan Borthwick scored again, but Callum Cruden blasted home a disputed penalty to make it 2-2. Savio Genini chipped in with another vital goal, scoring the winner with five minutes remaining. Kingussie manager Iain Borthwick said: 'We were flying during the first half-hour and could have been well ahead but for their keeper Ronan Macmillan. 'The second half was more even so it was a relief to see Savio's shot hit the net. The semi-final should be a cracker.' It took extra-time before Newtonmore saw off Skye 3-1. The Islanders led through Archie Millar, but Iain Robinson equalised soon after. Goals in the second half of extra-time from Conor Jones and Iain Robinson again sent More through. Manager Peter Ross said: 'I thought we'd more pressure but Skye were always dangerous. 'They aren't far away from being a side that can win things. We won it with a wonder save from Kenny Ross from Dan MacDonald and a wonder goal from Conor Jones after good play from Declan Brannan who got stronger and stronger as the tie went on.' Oban Camanachd face Glasgow Mid Argyll in the other semi-final. Fort William are two points clear at the top of the Mowi Premiership after beating Kinlochshiel 3-1. Arron Jack put Shiel ahead but Lachie Shaw equalised before half-time. Hamish Shaw put the Fort ahead soon after the restart and a late second from Lachie Shaw sealed victory. Fort William co-manager Alan Knox said: 'We were against the wind during an even first half, but we played some lovely shinty after that and dominated from there. I thought their keeper Josh Grant made some outstanding saves.' Kilmallie go third in the Mowi National Division after beating Glenurquhart 2-1. Full forward Martin Stewart dropped deep to lay the ball off to Ben MacKinnon who sent a blistering 30-yard strike by Stuart MacKintosh in the visiting goal to put Kilmallie ahead. Martin Stewart was again the provider as Archie MacNiven smashed home the second from the left. Daniel Maclean pulled a goal back, but it wasn't enough.
