£14m Wolves player finally has become the most lethal player in the Premier League

Wolves have once again come under fire for their performance in the final third, but one Molineux player is the subject of an intriguing statistic.

The new season hasn’t gone well for the Wanderers; they’ve dropped four of their opening five Premier League contests.

Wolves lost one more this past weekend as Liverpool defeated them 3-1 at Molineux.

Wolves performed admirably in the first half and appeared to be in a position to win the match.

However, the second half saw a significant decline, as Liverpool turned the game around.

Simply put, Wolves need to get more clinical – although that may not apply too much to one player in the squad right now…

Impressive statistic emerges about Wolves star Hwang Hee-chan

One of the biggest positives of Wolves’ tough start this season has been the form of Hwang Hee-chan.

Hwang has enjoyed a pretty good 2023 on the whole, having struggled a bit before the World Cup.

In these opening weeks, he has looked a real threat.

And now, a pretty impressive statistic has emerged about the South Korean forward.

According to WhoScored, out of the 84 players in the Premier League who have had five shots or more so far, Hwang actually has the best conversion rate with 42.9%.

Such a rate technically makes Hwang the most clinical player in the division right now. He may not be the top goalscorer, but he is currently the most efficient at taking chances.

£14 million star Hwang has scored three goals in the Premier League so far, against Brighton, Crystal Palace and Liverpool.

Hwang has his eye in for Wolves right now

Hwang, praised recently by O’Neil, has definitely made an impressive start to the new campaign.

So far, he has looked like the most likely source of a goal for Wolves.

Simply put, he must be one of the first names on Gary O’Neil’s teamsheet at this point.

Wolves may have struggled to get points on the board. But the performances of Hwang, and also Pedro Neto, are reason to be encouraged.

Hopefully, other players can take a leaf out of Hwang’s book and become a bit more clinical in front of goal.
