Marshall Munetsi's future remains uncertain
Despite being under contract with Wolves, Munetsi continues to be linked with a move away from the club. He spent the second half of the season on loan at Paris FC in France.
Opportunities were limited for the midfielder during the campaign. Munetsi joined Wolves a year ago from Ligue 1 side Reims, where he made close to 150 appearances and scored 21 goals in France's top flight. During his debut season in Wolves' gold and black colours, the Zimbabwean international scored twice in 16 matches and provided much-needed energy as the club secured an eighth consecutive season in the Premier League.

He later impressed during his loan spell, scoring four goals and providing two assists in 13 appearances while helping stabilise his side's campaign. His performances have not gone unnoticed.
Munetsi's situation has sparked renewed interest in South Africa, where he previously starred for Orlando Pirates before moving abroad. A potential return to the Premier League is viewed as another significant step in the career of a player with strong PSL roots.
