Wolverhampton Wanderers have secured the long-term future of midfielder Andre, who has signed a new four-year contract with the club, extending his stay until 2030 with the option for an additional year. This commitment comes as the club prepares for a significant rebuild in the Championship following their relegation.

Andre's Journey at Wolves

The 24-year-old Brazilian joined Wolves in August 2024 from Fluminense, where he had spent his entire career prior to the move. In his first season in English football, Andre made a notable impact, featuring 74 times and earning the Player of the Month award from supporters on two occasions. His contributions were vital in helping the team secure their place in the Premier League.

Looking Ahead

Despite a challenging current season that culminated in relegation, Andre has remained a consistent performer. His first goal for the club was a memorable injury-time winner against Liverpool at Molineux in March. With eight caps to his name while playing in the West Midlands, Andre's early commitment to the club signals his dedication to helping Wolves bounce back to the Premier League at the first opportunity.

Nathan Shi, the executive chairman, expressed his delight at Andre's decision, stating that the midfielder's desire to stay has been evident throughout their discussions. Shi emphasized that Andre's commitment reflects the club's long-term ambitions and sends a strong message to potential recruits about their goals. Head coach Rob Edwards also praised Andre, highlighting his professionalism and leadership qualities, and expressed excitement about having him in the Championship, acknowledging the challenges ahead.
