Sunderland, West Brom to pounce for Olofinjana

Wolves boss Mick McCarthy admits he expects to lose midfielder Seyi Olofinjana this summer.

Olofinjana has been linked with West Brom and Sunderland and McCarthy told the club's website: "I'd love him to stay but he'll end up going. He's a Premier League player and if he gets the opportunity, he'll go.

"There will be a club for him. Everyone I've spoken to I've said 'take him' because if I was a Premier League manager I'd sign him - he's that good."

He added: "If he doesn't go, it won't break my mind to have him back. It wouldn't take long to pick up the pieces because he's a fabulous player."
