Wolves confirm forward star to leave club this summer

The 33-year-old Spanish forward scored eight goals in 77 appearances after joining from Paris Saint-Germain in 2023 but made only seven Premier League starts this season.

Sarabia still managed to claim the club’s goal of the season award thanks to a stunning free-kick in last month’s win at Manchester United, the second successive year he had claimed the prize.

He will officially leave Wolves when his contract expires at the end of next month and paid tribute to fans for their support.

Sarabia said: “I was very, very happy, with my family and everyone at Wolves. 

“Everyone tried to help me and my family, and for me that’s the most important thing in life. 

“I have very good memories of Wolves in terms of quality of life, in terms of playing with the supporters, every single game I felt them in the stadium, and because of this I just want to say thanks for everything.

“My balance in my life is to help everyone, and because of this I found a very good family, a very good team and very good people at Wolves. 

“I’m going to miss everything because I have friends at the club, every single teammate, the staff and the people who, for example, work in the gym, the physios, (head of player care) Lisa (Hollis), everyone there – I’ll miss it.”

Sarabia was one of five players signed during the January 2023 window under then boss Julen Lopetegui, at a time when the club sat bottom of the Premier League.

But they were able to engineer a revival, eventually stopping up with several matches to spare.

Sarabia said: “I have a lot of good memories from the beginning. For the supporters they were very hard moments, but we lived it together and it is the most important thing. 

“It doesn't matter if our spot was 19th, 18th or eighth. For me, the support always was very good in every single situation, and we needed it all the time. 

“When we were living a very hard situation, for example in the beginning of this season, the support was always behind us, and because of this they are number 12 (the 12th man), and it's one of the most important things at Wolves, their support.”

He continued: “I’m thankful for everything, for each moment of support. I feel them behind me every single time I try something. 

“I try to work a lot, not just on the pitch, to help every single teammate, and I try to help the manager, and every single situation, the bad situations, the good situations, every single moment I'm behind the team and I think it is the most important. 

“I expect that the people know it because with my commitment to the team, I always tried to do my best.

“Always I will be a supporter of Wolves. I wish the best for Wolves every single season. I’m going to support Wolves for all my life, because I’m very, very thankful.”
