⚠️ BREAKING: “A Message To The Fans” — Bueno Confirms January Departure

 

WOLVERHAMPTON, ENGLAND – Santiago Bueno has confirmed he will leave Wolverhampton Wanderers in the January transfer window, after the club agreed a record transfer fee with a Saudi Arabian side for the popular defender. The news has come as a surprise to many supporters, who voted him their Player of the Season for 2025–26 with an impressive 34% of the vote.

 

A Heartfelt Message To The Wolves Family

 

Speaking openly about the decision, Bueno released an emotional statement to supporters:

 

“To every Wolves fan everywhere — this is not an easy message to write. This club gave me a home, a jersey I was proud to wear every single week, and fans who stood by me through everything. Winning your Player of the Season award last year was the greatest honour of my career — that 34% wasn’t just votes, it was trust, and I will never forget it. But a unique opportunity has presented itself, one that secures my family’s future in a way I cannot turn down. I leave with nothing but gratitude. I will give everything I have until my final day at Molineux. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.”

 

Record Deal Agreed

 

Wolves confirmed the development in a brief statement this afternoon:

 

“We can confirm that we have reached an agreement with a Saudi Pro League club for the transfer of Santiago Bueno in January. It represents a record fee for a defender in our history. Santiago has been an outstanding professional — a fans’ favourite and a true gentleman. We respect his decision and wish him every success.”

 

Focus Remains On The Pitch

 

The 27-year-old will remain available for selection until the window opens. He has featured in every match so far this season, marshalling the defence with composure and authority. While the news stings, the club and supporters alike are wishing him well — recognising that sometimes, life offers opportunities too big to refuse.

 

Thank you for everything, Santiago. You came, you conquered, and you’ll always be welcome back at Molineux. 🐺❤️
