Wolves Striker Jorgen Strand Larsen Signs Long-Term Contract

by Alex Carter - Sports Editor

Wolves forward Jorgen Strand Larsen has committed his future to the club,signing a new⁤ contract that extends his‌ stay until⁢ 2030.

the new deal, finalized just three months after his‌ permanent move to Molineux, includes an option⁤ for a further year. This commitment from the 25-year-old Norwegian ‍international signals Wolves’‍ intent to build around the striker, despite ‍a challenging start to the Premier​ League season.

Larsen ‌initially joined Wolves on loan from ​Celta ‍Vigo, where he ⁢impressed by scoring 14 goals. That form prompted the club to secure‌ his services permanently for a fee of £23 million, a move that helped stabilize Wolves and secure a 16th-place finish in the Premier League last season.

The club resisted significant interest ​in larsen during the summer transfer window, reportedly turning down bids of £50 million and £55 million from Newcastle United. This demonstrates the high regard in which Wolves hold the player and their ​determination⁢ to retain his​ services.

So far ‌this season, Larsen ‌has⁤ scored two ‍goals, both coming in an EFL Cup victory against West Ham. However, he is ​currently sidelined with an ‍Achilles injury, having missed the last two matches.

Wolves will be hoping for Larsen’s swift return‌ to fitness as⁣ they prepare to ⁢face Leeds united on Saturday, seeking⁤ to end a run of four ⁢consecutive Premier League defeats.

Larsen’s contract‍ extension follows a similar commitment from ‌Wolves manager ⁣Vitor Pereira, who agreed a new three-year deal on ⁣Thursday.
