Lens reject two bids for Danso

Wolves have had two bids rejected for Lens defender Kevin Danso.

The Premier League strugglers have reignited their interest in the 26-year-old having initially opted to sign Emmanuel Agbadou from Reims ahead of him earlier this month.

One of Wolves' offers was 22m euros (£18.44m) and the clubs remain in talks.

Personal terms are not expected to be an issue with the Austria international.

Wolves changed their minds on moving for Danso - after Agbadou's £16.6m move - having accepted they needed more defensive reinforcements after slipping back into the Premier League's relegation zone at the weekend.

Wolves have conceded 52 goals in the Premier League this season, only Southampton - 53 - have shipped more.

Danso has been tracked for a while and the club's interest pre-dates Vitor Pereira's arrival, after he replaced Gary O'Neil last month.

The centre-back who was in the academies at MK Dons and Reading, also spent time on loan at Southampton in 2019-20 and joined Lens from Augsburg in 2021.
