Wolves sign defender Jackson Tchatchoua for 12.5m euros (£10.8m) on a five-year deal from Serie A side Hellas Verona.

Wolverhampton has completed the signing of Cameroon defender Jackson Tchatchoua and boasted that its new player was the “fastest player in Serie A last season.”

But a year later, when Pedro Neto departed, there was no player ready to fill the void, and the winger’s ability to give Wolves a wide, direct outlet has still not been replaced. And now, after the departure of Cunha and Ait-Nouri, they are relying on new faces to hit the ground running to fill the void. It is an unrealistic ask.
