Does anyone know if the U19s are currently in Plzen for a youth tournament? The latest ITK on the Mix claims to have bumped into Jerry Gill there and had it confirmed, but, of course, everybody seems to be accepting it without asking if the U19s *are actually in the Czech Republic*...

Today, Wolves U19 arrived for a tournament, along with Norwich, Hertha Berlin, 1860 Munich and Greuther Furth. Jerry Gill is my student's contact from back in his days at Norwich.
Jerry Gill has confirmed to my student this morning that Wolves are already under Chinese ownership. The deal is done.
I can't confirm who the owner(s) are, however, or if Moxey will remain. Gill is set to stay in post, so it does not seem to involve wholesale changes.
This is 100% in good faith - I 'borrowed' a tournament programme if anyone wants proof of my claim! Just the right and right time with a blabbermouth student who knows I am a Wolves fsn and couldn't wait to tell me the news.
Happy days
