The new Metal and Gold Leaf sculpture, which marks one of the greatest vital matches in the club’s history, presented on Friday December 13.
Almost 60,000 enthusiasts saw the wolves face the Hungarian champions in December 1954.
The game saw the wolves come from 2-0 down to win 3-2 opposite one of the biggest groups of time and paved the way for the European Cup.
Rev. Andrew Cullis, son of former Wolves manager Stan Cullis, told the BBC that the “match was so special” and “really meant a lot” to his father.
“It became interesting, I think it spilled a tear after winning, the maximum unusual,” he added.
Stan Cullis, who died in 2001 aged 85, led Wolves to their first league titles in the 1950s.
Designed and created through West Midlands artist Luke Perry, the new sculpture celebrates the importance of fit and serves as a permanent reminder of the role wolves played in the education of the first European club competition.
Perry worked collaboratively with Lobos and the club’s fan teams to bring an artistic interpretation to the Wolves’ momentous victory.
He said: “It is a real honor that they ask me to create this sculpture for the team of my house and even more given the importance of this coincidence in the hearts of the enthusiasts. Many of the other people with whom Pinto are enthusiasts of the Wolves And they see the sculpture take shape with something similar to reverence.
“This historical setting brought combined figures from football history who were known to capture, such as Bert Williams, whose silhouette of a goalkeeper with a flat boundary constitutes brilliant reference material.
“I’m hoping that this sculpture will be a beloved representation for the fans of what is for many of them an almost mythical moment in the club’s rich history.”
Mr Perry also said that while he didn’t really follow football himself, he had a lot of family members who were Wolves supporters and said it had been an honour to be involved in something so well revered by the club.
He said: “My great-grandfather played for Wolves and I’ve attended a few games because my daughter is in the Wolves women’s team, so I would probably end up being a Wolves fan because of all that.
“Football has great aesthetics and high standards, so I was looking to create something that could satisfy all of that and it had to be iconic.
“The club is pleased with him and there were lots of other people who were over the moon to see him and almost in tears, so it turns out to have been a typhoon and it’s great to know that other people appreciate his work. “
