Wolverhampton Wanderers are expected to sanction the departures of several first-team stars following their relegation to the Championship with full-back Jackson Tchatchoua amongst the names the club are reportedly willing to sacrifice.
The Cameroon international joined the Molineux side from Hellas Verona 12 months ago for a fee of around £10.7 million and went on to make 36 appearances in all competitions across the 2025/26 campaign.
However, despite being one of the few players to claim any form of adulation for his performances, it appears his spell in the West Midlands will be short lived.
According to the Telegraph's John Percy, Wolves are ready to listen to offers for the pacy defender with club chiefs 'expecting him to leave' before the transfer window slams shut in early September.
Tchatchoua still has four years left of his existing deal to run and it's understood the club hope to recoup as much of their near £11 million outlay as possible.
Kieran Trippier's recent arrival at Molineux will likely see him installed as new head coach Cesar Peixoto's starting right-back and deem big money signing Tchatchoua surplus to requirements.
Wolves will be hoping to ensure their return to the second-tier proves short-lived after their eight-year stay in the Premier League came to a crashing halt in May.
Former boss Rob Edwards was expected to lead their charge back to the top-flight but was shockingly dismissed just 24 hours after appearing in the club's official announcement video of the signing of Raul Jimenez.
Like Trippier, Edwards, who captained Wolves during a successful playing career in the Black Country, was believed to be instrumental in the acquisition of Mexican star Jimenez, but now finds himself out of work after club chiefs opted to hand Peixoto his first opportunity in English football.
The Portuguese head coach has already been linked with a number of new signings following his arrival, including West Ham United striker Pablo, Famalicao defender Rodrigo Pinheiro and former Molineux favourite Adama Traore, who has been released by Championship rivals West Ham United.
