Wolves Seek Matt Doherty Cover With Talks Underway With Stoke Over Move for Moritz Bauer
Wolverhampton Wanderers are in talks with Stoke City to sign Austrian full back Moritz Bauer as Nuno Espirito Santo looks for backup to Republic of Ireland defender Matt Doherty.
Nuno's side invested heavily during the summer, bringing in over £69m worth of players, but the Wolves boss is looking to add competition in defensive areas, with a deal reported to be in discussion.
Despite not featuring for Stoke since September last year, Sky Sports report that Nuno is eager to bring the player to Molineux to provide some respite for Doherty, who has started all 22 of Wolves' Premier League games this season.
