Wolverhampton Wanderers are in the market for late reinforcements and are now set to bring a valuable addition through the door at Molineux, according to Fabrizio Romano.
Wolves look to seal late signings amid Christantus Uche debacle
Vitor Pereira looked set to land his man in Getafe star Christantus Uche, who appeared all but set for a £17 million move to the West Midlands to beef up an attacking line in need of reinforcements.
However, reports overnight have turned the tide somewhat, with Ben Jacobs delivering an update on his official X account that illustrates there is still work to be done before he could be officially unveiled.
He stated: “Christantus Uche starts for Getafe against Sevilla. Club-to-Club agreement in place for a potential move to Wolves, but player yet to sign off on the deal. Although Wolves are still planning for his arrival, Uche’s green light is pending.”
The Nigeria international started in Getafe’s 2-1 victory over Sevilla on Monday night, complicating matters further, though Wolves supporters will hope they can see a resolution agreed upon before the deadline passes.
Elsewhere, the Old Gold are keen on a deal for Chelsea’s Axel Disasi, albeit they may need to get creative and have looked at ‘performance-based bonuses to complete the deal without stretching their budget’ in an attempt to circumvent the Blues’ £30 million asking price.
Work is still to be done from a Wolves perspective if they have designs on securing a comfortable finish in the Premier League, but it is fair to say that anticipation is growing among supporters as their rivals strenghthen their own respective squads.
Now, the Old Gold could be set to complete a transfer of their own that will add some much-needed security to their backline, per recent developments.
Girona defender Ladislav Krejci set for Wolves medical
Taking to social media platform X, Romano has confirmed that Wolves are set to sign Girona defender Ladislav Krejci, who is now set for a medical ahead of a move to Molineux that will cost around £26 million.
With the 26-year-old now gaining authorization to travel, Pereira won’t need to wait much longer until the Czechia international touches down to shore up his backline ahead of the transfer deadline.
Overall, Krejci has made 38 appearances in all competitions for Girona, registering two goals and one assist since joining the La Liga outfit from Sparta Prague last summer.
He also made 34 interceptions and won 102 duels on league duty last term, offering a flavour of what Wolves fans could be in for once he finalises his move to Molineux.
The window is fast coming to an end and signings are necesarry to aid the Old Gold in their mission under Pereira, and supporters will be pleased to see that this pursuit is nearing its conclusion.
