Wolves boss Bruno Lage stands by selling Owen Otasowie to Club Brugge.
The midfielder was cashed in last week.
Lage stated: "This is a fantastic opportunity for Owen to further his career. Our academy brought a boy from London at 15 and really developed him to become a full international and play in Premier League, which shows the great work being done here.
"Our job is to develop players to fulfil their potential. If it's to play in our first-team then great, but it is obviously very difficult to make the grade in the Premier League, so if it means we'll develop them and sell them, that is an important part of our strategy as well.
"In this case we have worked hard to develop Owen as a player and a person, and we have turned a young prospect into a multi-million pound player, and that will only benefit the Wolves academy and our other young players coming through."
