Former Celtic man fails in bid to join Wolves

Wolves now look less likely to offer a deal to former Celtic centre half Bobo Balde with the expected arrival of Chelsea defender Michael Mancienne later today

Balde had been on trial with Wolves for the majority of pre season having joined up with the squad in Australia.

But the 33-year-old has struggled for fitness and with the Mancienne deal expected to be rubber stamped later today Balde's chances earning a deal now look slim.

Vital Wolves Comment: It's been a while since Birmingham were linked with the same players as us, so no surprise to see the Daily Record linking Balde with a possible move to Birmingham.
