Race for Calvin Bassey: Wolves join Aston Villa and two others

English Premier league club, Wolverhampton Wanderers are reportedly interested in bringing Calvin Bassey to the Molenieux this summer.

According to Daily Record, a number of Premier League sides are waiting in line for the 22-year-old Super Eagles defender.

The Nigerian has had an eventful season with Rangers, making 50 appearances across all competitions. Bassey made headlines recently with his performance in Rangers' Europa League final defeat to Eintracht Frankfurt.

In Seville, the former Leicester City youngster was undoubtedly Rangers' best player. He was quite unfortunate to end up on the losing side.

He however swiftly put his disappointment behind him and was awarded man-of-the-match in their Scottish Cup final triumph against Hearts on Saturday.

The Daily Record scored him an 8/10 for his performance against the Jambos, describing him as "immense."

Several clubs have expressed interest in Bassey as a result of his rise.

Alongside Wolves, Aston Villa, Fulham, and Brentford are also interested in the left-back. 

Two unnamed Serie A clubs are also interested, according to reports.
