Wolverhampton Wanderers have reportedly decided to make an approach for AC Milan forward Andre Silva, providing that the club earn promotion to the Premier League.

During the January transfer window, Wolves were linked with the Portuguese international, who has failed to score in 14 appearances in Serie A this season.

However, the 22-year-old's stock remains high due to six goals in the Europa League and according to Calciomercato, Wolves are prepared to spend big on the striker.

Nuno Espirito Santo's side currently sit 11 points clear at the top of the Championship standings, 12 ahead of third-placed Aston Villa.

Should the club secure promotion to the top flight, there would be less pressure to meet FFP regulations, meaning that an offer in the region of £35m could be made for Silva.

The player has previously worked with Nuno at Porto.
