Jørgen Strand Larsen

60m sounds a lot but it's probably no more than about 5-10m too much. 

 

40m feels like a bargain and 50m still decent, for someone who has scored goals in the PL.

 

I don't think it's the best possible signing but it's number 7 or so on the list.

[jack j]

My only worry is him being a chris wood style of striker which didnt work for us

Said it before but not really seen much of him so might be wrong like

[Skeletor]

Chris Wood's biggest problem was that he was absolutely shit in front of goal, unless it was a penalty. Strand-Larsen at least seems brilliant in front of goal.

[johnny36]

From his cameo last night..Took his 2 goals well, could have scored a 3rd , tracked back and helped his defenders out  too.. He could get 15 /20 goals for us with decent service

As long as we get full whack for Isak it's not bad. If we start folding at £120-130m for him then it's poor. 

[nufcjmc]

Minus whatever the loan fee was did they really just pay £23m for him in the summer?

 

Wow I know its late in the window and issues of who comes in to replace him but 37m profit is crazy. 

 

Its lloyd Kelly level good business. 

[Dandy Man]

Are we still "insisting" then?

I'm hoping we don't sell Isak if JSL is our only signing.

They just signed him for half.

Jørgen Strand Larsen initially joined Wolves from Celta Vigo on an initial loan deal in 2024 for an initial loan fee of £2.5 million (€3 million). This loan included an option to buy for £23 million (€27 million), which was automatically triggered and made the move permanent in July 2025 after he met certain appearances clauses during the 2024/25 season.

Its better.

I don't know if I've ever known a saga(s) to be so defined by this concept of a chain. I guess it's a sign of the times, where most Premier League squads have just one striker who is very much defined as the first choice. Selling that player therefore represents a massive risk and inflates their value.

 

You wondered if Outtara might break the logjam, in that Brentford were gaining a striker but Bournemouth weren't losing one. However that logic turned out to be false. Jackson could've been the domino, seeing as he's expendable to Chelsea, but I think a team like us holds out until the deadline, where his price will presumably be lowest. 

 

So, if you're targeting PL strikers, you have to engage in a chain which must start with a very willing seller, probably from a less cash-rich league. Hopefully Wolves can dig someone up from Belgium and we can get Larsen.

Bagsman or no?

I know but I don't really care about how much profit Wolves make. He wasn't a proven PL scorer when they bought him.

We've been through this Richard.

Because it was agreed at last year's prices. 

Like it or not, we aren't getting any proven PL strikers for less than £50m+ in this summers market.

I’m far too busy and important to read every single post these days Ianard.

[nemtizz]

Ignoring the price tag I feel like he's the perfect mould of second striker that we've been calling out for. Even with Isak in the team so many cut backs and crosses were calling out for a big man with good positioning and aerial ability. Of course It's been even more evident the last couple games.

[Optimistic Nut]

Celta must have the same Director of Football as what Deportivo had when they gave Schar the £3.5m release clause. They've been had. 

[AyeDubbleYoo]

I don't see any reason to be bothered about how much profit Wolves make. Good luck to them, it's about how much we value the player (and the gaping hole in our squad).

Putting massive pressure on him if we did.

 

Even if we had plans to spend any Isak fee in January, we’d be gambling on him not picking up an injury between now and then. Mind you, we gambled on that at CB last season and it turned out OK, but still.

[bobbydazzla]

I half-watched a couple of Wolves games last season as I was sat on the sofa listening to 110-120bpm chuggy techno and the telly was only on as a mild visual distraction

 

And this lad caught my eye, he looked like he was decent

 

And that's all I have to say about that

Frankfurt signed Ekitike last summer for £14 million. 

[KennyUtd]

Wait until this boy gets Howed. We'll be asking £100m in 2 years time. 

[ads]

If this gets done at ~£60m then yes, we've 'overpaid' and will likely be mocked by fans of other clubs as a result of the previous failures and our seeming desperation at this point.

 

That said, I genuinely think he'll be a brilliant fit for the way we play and will score plenty in this team.

 

It's not my money so I don't give a fuck how much he or anyone else costs. Hell, if we can pay Matt Targett half a million quid a week this fella looks like smart business at £60m.
