Wolves skipper Karl Henry is set for new contract talks.
“Karl is more than happy to stay at Wolves – he loves it there,” agent Eric Walters told the Birmingham Mail. “He returns from Las Vegas in the next few days when we will meet with the club and sort things out.
“I would imagine it will be sorted out within 10 days or so.”
Henry's current deal expires in 2011.

Wolves have moved on from Oguchi Onyewu in their search for new signings – after being given permission to talk to “one or two” other targets.
Reports suggest the giant American international, who was watched by boss Mick McCarthy last week, has been in England for talks with a club.
But it wasn’t at Molineux and he won’t be signing for McCarthy, with Spain now a likely destination for the Standard Liege defender.
Instead, the manager has switched his attentions elsewhere, after being given the go-ahead to start talks with other potential signings.
Chief executive Jez Moxey said: “We are making progress, we have been given permission to talk to one or two players and their agents.
“We’re working hard behind the scenes to bring the right people to the club.”
While the club are keeping the identities of their targets close to their chest, they have ruled out a move for Sochaux centre-back Rabiu Afolabi.
Reports in France indicating Wolves was his next destination have been scotched by the club.
The 29-year-old Nigeria international, who is available on a Bosman free transfer, claims he has lots of interested clubs in him and wants to play in the Premier League.
Wolves have also realised they face a lengthy wait if they want to land Michael Mancienne.
With Chelsea managerless and wanting to strengthen before they allow players to leave, any decision on the young defender’s future isn’t likely before much later in the summer.
As much as McCarthy would like to sign the 21-year-old who performed so impressively on loan for Wolves during their Championship title-winning campaign, the manager won’t be holding his breath in his pursuit of the England under-21 international.
Doncaster have also distanced themselves from any contact with Wolves over midfielder Brian Stock, who was linked with a move to Molineux last week.
Rovers chairman John Ryan said: “We have a really friendly relationship with Wolves. If they were interested in Brian, they would ring us up.”

Wolves have declared ‘no deal’ over the chance to sign Tottenham midfielder Tom Huddlestone after hearing he would cost £8m.
Boss Mick McCarthy has moved on in his search after being quoted the mega-bucks price for the one-time Molineux loan man, who only signed a five-year contract at White Hart Lane last summer.
McCarthy is in the market to sign experienced Premier League players, but won’t be held to ransom by huge prices and wages.
The Championship title-winning boss has also been linked with relegated Newcastle midfield pair Nicky Butt and Alan Smith, but their £60,000-a-week wages have contributed to the fact they have been swiftly rejected as potential Molineux signings this summer.
Wolves had been linked with former Derby midfielder Huddlestone, who played 13 games in gold and black in the 2005-06 season under Glenn Hoddle.
Huddlestone is also known to Wolves players Michael Kightly, Sylvan Ebanks-Blake and Richard Stearman from the England under-21 set-up.
But McCarthy won’t be going back for the powerful midfielder after hearing how much he would cost.
Huddlestone is believed to be one of several players Spurs manager Harry Redknapp is prepared to cash in on this summer as he seeks an improvement on this season’s eighth placed finish in the Premier League table.
But his destination won’t be Molineux if he moves on from White Hart Lane this summer.
Midfield is one of the areas McCarthy is known to want to strengthen before the big kick-off.
McCarthy won’t entertain the sort of financially draining signings claiming one last pay day.
Much more realistic will be people who possess the ‘legs and lungs’ to be a threat at the top level.
The 50-year-old Molineux chief has returned from a two-week long Europe-wide scouting mission, but is keeping the identities of his targets close to his chest to avoid alerting rival clubs to his activities.
Wolves scouts have been active all over the country watching Premier League games and matches abroad since the Championship season finished three weeks ago.

Wolves have been linked to a three-way tug of war for Anderlecht’s hardman defender Marcin Wasilewski.
The 28-year-old Polish international right-back is under contract to 2011, but reports in Holland suggest Wolves, Stoke and Hull are considering £2.2million bids.
Wasilewski is a colourful figure, having scored eight goals this season – the third highest for his club who tied for the title with Standard Liege – while being booked as many times.
The 6ft 1in centre-half, who scores most of his goals from setpiece headers, has netted 13 goals in 68 games for Anderlecht after spells with four Polish clubs.
Wolves have watched Belgian football recently¸but they would hope any moves for Belgians and Poles would be more successful than their previous ventures – expensive striker flops Cedric Roussel and Tomasz Frankowski
