Wolves Pull Off Stunning Early Move to Secure Devine Samuel as Blackburn and Burnley Scramble to Catch Up — Insider Reveals Shocking Details Behind The Deal…
In a dramatic twist to the summer transfer saga, Wolves have pulled off a stunning early move to secure the signature of prolific striker Devine Samuel, leaving Blackburn Rovers and Burnley racing to catch up. Sources close to the club have revealed surprising details behind the deal that could reshape the race for one of the Championship’s hottest talents.
The 24-year-old Samuel, who made a name for himself with his goal-scoring exploits at Leyton Orient, had been heavily linked with Blackburn and Burnley for weeks. However, Wolves’ quick action and shrewd negotiation tactics reportedly caught rivals off guard.
According to insiders, Wolves identified and activated a little-known release clause in Samuel’s contract — a move that fast-tracked discussions and gave them a decisive edge in the transfer battle. This clause, previously undisclosed to the public and rival clubs, enabled Wolves to open talks earlier than expected, securing the striker’s commitment before others could finalize their bids.
Blackburn and Burnley, both keen on bolstering their attacking options this summer, are said to be “scrambling” to find alternative solutions, but sources indicate Wolves are confident the deal will be completed swiftly.
The signing of Samuel would be a significant boost for Wolves, signaling the club’s serious ambition to strengthen their squad and push for promotion. Fans and pundits alike will be closely watching how this transfer story unfolds in the coming days.
Official announcements are expected soon, but the revelation of the secretive contract clause and Wolves’ rapid move has already sent shockwaves through the Championship transfer market.
