The 2017–18 season was the 140th in the history of English football club Wolverhampton Wanderers and the first under former FC Porto manager Nuno Espírito Santo who was appointed on 31 May 2017. The club competed in the English Football League Championship for the fourth consecutive and final year as well as the EFL Cup and the FA Cup.
The club led the league table on 31 October with a win against Norwich City and stayed put since then, both winning the title and gaining promotion to the Premier League after a 6-year absence with a tally of 99 points, the club's highest-ever in the second tier. The club recorded a pre-tax loss of £57.16 million in its season-concluded accounts published on 5 March 2019, of which around £20 million was for bonuses paid to its staff and players for achieving Premier League promotion. It also noted a deficit of more than a £1 million per week, making the loss more than double the value from the previous financial year.
