Dapo Anunlopo Joins Wolves
Wolves has secured the signing of exciting young forward Dapo Anunlopo from League Two side Bromley. The 17-year-old, who will link up with the academy’s under-18 side, arrives at Compton Park as a highly rated attacking player after just six months with the London club. Having grown up in Ireland, Anunlopo joined Bromley from Dundalk and caught the eye of the Wolves recruitment team following impressive performances in both the Premier League Cup and FA Youth Cup, including a goal in the latter against Ipswich Town this month. Head of Academy Recruitment Harry Hooman spoke about the attributes that attracted the club: “Dapo hasn’t been at Bromley long, having moved over from Ireland, but he has really impressed us in the first half of the season and we have been monitoring his progress over the last few months. We really like what we see and believe he has huge potential. “He is a quick, direct and aggressive forward who can operate across the front line. We are always looking at clubs lower down the pyramid for players who are hungry to improve and develop. What stands out with Dapo is his athleticism and versatility, but also his desire to make things happen – we love how he carries the ball. He has really bought into our approach here at Wolves and we’re very excited to be working with him.” Wolves thanked Bromley for their assistance and co-operation during the transfer and wished them the very best for the remainder of the season.
