The Midlands club may have to wait a while to finalise a deal for the Scotland international.
Southampton striker  Che Adams may wait until after the European Championships to join Wolverhampton Wanderers, according to Tutto Mercato Web.

The Saints striker’s contract at St Mary’s expires this summer, and his future is still uncertain.

With the player yet to sign a new contract, it is likely that he will leave the south coast club in the coming weeks or months, but that is not guaranteed at this time.

Russell Martin is desperate to keep the 27-year-old, and with the club’s play-off final victory against Leeds United last weekend, he may have a better chance of keeping one of his main strikers.

Retaining Adams could be crucial, with Paul Onuachu expected to leave the south coast club during the summer window following his loan spell in Turkey last season.

With Onuachu likely on his way out and Sekou Mara’s future questionable given that he was not a prominent player for the Saints during the 2023/24 season, more quality and depth may be necessary in this department if Adams departs.

Even without Adams’ departure, another striker may be required, so the promoted club will be hoping to reduce their workload by keeping one of their important players.

Although they made a lot of money in player sales last summer, they’ve already spent an estimated £20 million on Taylor Harwood-Bellis and won’t want to spend too much money as they try to stay below budgetary limits.

And finding an adequate successor for Adams will not be inexpensive, given his skill and efficacy in the closing third.

Adams is a member of Scotland’s tentative squad for the European Championships, which will take place in Germany next month.

It appears that he will be named in Steve Clarke’s final roster, which means that he will be away with his national team until at least June 23rd, when they face Hungary in their final group match.

Although Tutto Mercato Web believes he is only one step away from joining Wolves, they also say that he may wait until after the Euros to make a decision about his future.

Che Adams should look for clarification about his future as soon as possible.
Adams must make a choice on his future before the Euros for two important reasons.

For starters, he is out of contract, and if he gets a catastrophic injury while in Germany, he will be unable to rely on his contract.

If he registers with a new club, he will have a long-term contract and hence long-term financial security, which can only be beneficial to the striker.

Second, he may be thinking about his future during the Euros, which will prevent him from performing to his full potential.

It seems logical for him to decide where he will play next season before boarding the plane.
