Wolves' forgotten man Rafa Mir emerges as shock target for Atletico Madrid

Wolves' forgotten forward Rafa Mir is a surprise target for Spanish champions Atletico Madrid.

Mir has started only one game for Wolves in more than three years since joining the club - an FA Cup tie against Swansea in January 2018 - but he thrived on loan at Huesca last season, scoring 13 goals that narrowly failed to keep his side in La Liga.

Despite that form, Wolves are still prepared to let Mir - who has only one year left on his contract - leave this summer and Atletico are considering a bid as they seek back-up for Luis Suarez and Angel Correa in attack.
