Wolves have told Celtic they are open to loaning out left-back Hugo Bueno but want him to be playing regularly, sources have told Football Insider.
It’s understood the Scottish Premier League champions have made contact with the Premier League club about a season-long loan deal for the Spain Under-21 international.
Wolves are keen for Bueno, 21, to get regular top-level football as they plan for the next stage of his development and will accept what they regard as the right offer from a club with a clear development plan.
With in-form Rayan Ait Nouri and Matt Doherty ahead of Bueno in the pecking order, first-team opportunities will be hard to come by for the youngster.
Celtic have been keeping close tabs on Bueno, as well as other left-back loan targets, as they look to provide competition for Greg Taylor.

Celtic want Hugo Bueno to provide competition for Greg Taylor
The Spain Under-21 international has been at Wolves for the entirety of his professional career so far, making 49 appearances and scoring once for the first-team.
Bueno is an attacking full-back and was often utilised higher up the pitch as a left midfielder by Gary O’Neil last season.
Celtic are in dire need of adding a left-back, if Taylor was to get injured next season, they wouldn’t have any first-team players to cover him who are truly comfortable in the position
Taylor made 46 appearances for Celtic last season and recently featured in their 4-3 pre-season win over Manchester City in the USA.
