Wolverhampton Wanderers Secure Jørgen Strand Larsen with New Long-Term Contract
Wolverhampton, England – In a move that underscores their faith in the young striker, Wolverhampton Wanderers have announced the signing of a new contract with Jørgen Strand Larsen. The Norwegian international, who officially joined the club permanently in July, has committed his future to the Wanderers until 2030, with an option for a further year.
The announcement, made on September 19, 2025, comes as a reward for Larsen’s outstanding performances last season. His contributions were instrumental in the team’s success, prompting the club to make his loan move from Celta Vigo a permanent one in a £23 million deal.
“Jørgen has proven to be an invaluable asset to our squad,” said a club spokesperson. “His dedication, work ethic, and goal-scoring ability have made him a fan favorite. We are thrilled to secure his future with us.”
The new contract also serves as a statement of intent from Wolverhampton Wanderers, warding off interest from other clubs, most notably Newcastle United. The Magpies had reportedly made several substantial offers for Larsen during the summer transfer window, but the Wanderers were determined to keep hold of their prized asset.
“We know there was interest from other clubs, but Jørgen is happy here, and we are delighted he has chosen to continue his journey with us,” the spokesperson added.
Larsen himself expressed his excitement about the new deal, saying, “I am very happy to extend my stay here at Wolves. I have felt at home since day one, and I am excited about what we can achieve together in the coming years. The fans have been incredible, and I am determined to repay their support with my performances on the pitch.”
The news has been met with widespread approval from Wolverhampton Wanderers supporters, who see Larsen as a key figure in the club’s future. His blend of physicality, technical ability, and eye for goal has made him a perfect fit for the team’s style of play.
With Jørgen Strand Larsen now committed to the club for the long term, Wolverhampton Wanderers can look forward to building on their recent success and challenging for honors in the years to come.
