Tommy Doyle<\/a> is allegedly expected to return to Wolverhampton Wanderers<\/a> once he has completed a loan spell with Birmingham City<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The midfielder was allowed to spend the 2025-26 campaign at St Andrew’s, a consequence of then-Wolves head coach Vitor Pereira feeling that he did not suit his style of play.<\/p>\n

Nevertheless, the 24-year-old was viewed as a major signing for Blues, who agreed to an obligation to buy in the event that they earned promotion to the Premier League.<\/p>\n

At this stage of the campaign, though, Birmingham sit in 11th position in the Championship table<\/a><\/strong>, 10 points adrift of the playoffs with seven matches remaining.<\/p>\n

Therefore, Doyle’s future has theoretically been thrown into doubt ahead of the summer transfer window.<\/p>\n

Will Wolves keep Doyle at Molineux?<\/p>\n

According to the Birmingham Mail<\/a>, it is already deemed ‘inevitable’ that Doyle returns to Molineux at the end of the season.<\/p>\n

Although Birmingham have the option to make a different bid for the former England Under-21 international than has previously been agreed, it will not be the \u00a310m that has been negotiated.<\/p>\n

Just 18 of Doyle’s 34 appearances in the Championship this season have come from the starting lineup. Since January 20, he has completed the 90 minutes on just two occasions.<\/p>\n

At this point in time, it appears likely that Doyle will be integrated into Rob Edwards<\/a>‘ Wolves squad for their expected Championship campaign in 2026-27.<\/p>\n

Doyle return a big boost for Wolves<\/p>\n

Not only does Doyle have 86 appearances in the Championship to his name during his career, a total of five goals and 10 assists have been contributed.<\/p>\n

He has also featured on 58 occasions for Wolves, where he is on a contract until 2028 with the club having the option to extend it to 2030.<\/p>\n

Furthermore, Wolves face the prospect of seeing their central-midfield ranks left depleted, with Joao Gomes and Andre to leave the club<\/a><\/strong> providing that relegation from the Premier League is confirmed.<\/p>\n

While Doyle may not be viewed as a like-for-like alternative, Wolves also require homegrown talent to ensure that they comply with EFL regulations.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Tommy Doyle is allegedly expected to return to Wolverhampton Wanderers once he has completed a loan spell with…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":847222,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[7820],"tags":[855,748,4230,393,68644,94,707,2826,4884,22138,7126,101,4151,93,68303,10938,1068,16,15],"class_list":{"0":"post-847221","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-birmingham","8":"tag-birmingham","9":"tag-britain","10":"tag-cycling","11":"tag-england","12":"tag-epl","13":"tag-football","14":"tag-formula-1","15":"tag-golf","16":"tag-great-britain","17":"tag-nfl","18":"tag-olympics","19":"tag-premier-league","20":"tag-rugby","21":"tag-sport","22":"tag-sports-mole","23":"tag-teams","24":"tag-tennis","25":"tag-uk","26":"tag-united-kingdom"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@uk\/116284533624832943","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/847221","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=847221"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/847221\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/847222"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=847221"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=847221"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=847221"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
