WOLVES Club Captain Paul Butler has almost certainly played his last game for the club. A move to Leeds or Derby County looks more likely for the former Sunderland defender.

 

Paul Butler made his comments regarding the contract situation at Molineux very well known. The former Sunderland defender demanded a 2-year contract at Molineux this Summer. Wolves however have called Butler's bluff by offering just a one year deal and Butler is now set to leave Molineux.

 

Jonathan Barnett who is acting as Agent for Paul Butler has said that no future talks were planned and Butler is expected to move on and continue his playing career elsewhere.

 

"We are not planning any further talks with Wolves," said Barnett.

Barnett also added "If they come back to us then fine, but we think that they have made us their best offer and we already have others to consider. We will accept whatever offer is right for Paul. But as far as we are concerned it is unlikely that Paul will stay at Wolves."

 

Butler was linked with a move to Derby Country several weeks ago, but Leeds United now appear to be winning the race for his signature.
