Wolves are in love with the idea of signing West Ham transfer target Mariano Diaz in the summer transfer window.
According to a report from Sport, Wolves want to bring Mariano Diaz to Molineux despite interest in the Real Madrid striker from West Ham.

Hammers boss David Moyes will be looking to bolster his centre-forward ranks at the London Stadium this summer, with Gianluca Scamacca and Danny Ings having failed to impress and Michail Antonio now 33.
The Hammers could well face strong competition from Wolves for his signature though…
West Ham want to sign Mariano Diaz, but report claims Wolves love him
With Sport claiming that Wolves want the 29-year-old forward, the Hammers clearly won’t have a free run at signing him.
In all honestly though, that’s not a bad thing. I think Moyes should let Wolves have the Dominican Republic international.
Diaz has failed to register either a goal or an assist this season for Madrid, and has played only 11 games in all competitions (Transfermarkt).
The 29-year-old has struggled since making his £23 million (The Sun) return to the Spanish capital from Lyon in the summer of 2018.
He is far from clinical with just 33 goals and nine assists to his name in 132 career appearances for Real Madrid and Lyon combined (Transfermarkt). With that in mind, it is strange that Spanish publication AS have described the striker as ‘lethal’.
I think that Moyes needs to bring a truly elite striker to the London Stadium this summer, if we are to make genuine progress as a football club.
So please West Ham, just let Wolves have Mariano Diaz if they really want him this summer.
