Ivory Coast have made a move for Wolves defender Willy Boly.

The Daily Mail says Boly has been offered the chance of an international career by Ivory Coast despite having represented France at junior level.

Boly, 27, has been approached by the Africans after playing a major part in Wolves' impressive return to the Premier League.

They face Newcastle on Sunday in mid-table having beaten Chelsea 2-1 on Wednesday night.

The centre-half was born in France and represented their under-19s but his gateway to the senior squad has been blocked by World Cup winners Raphael Varane and Samuel Umtiti and he's eligible for Ivory Coast through his parents.
