Wolves are closing in on an exciting La Liga talent as his current club needs to sell to abide by Financial Fair Play rules.
As we enter the business end of the transfer window, the links are coming thick and fast and Spain seems to be where Vitor Pereira is most interested in shopping.
Wolves are closing in on a deal for Girona’s Ladislav Krejčí, and have sent Barcelona a proposal for Marc Casado.
And now, a player who has been on Wolves’ radar for some time might be available for a bargain price.
Getafe need to sell Christantus Uche for FFP and Wolves are leading the race
According to Diario, Wolves are the favourites to land Christantus Uche as Getafe struggle with FFP restrictions.
Other interested clubs are Sunderland, Leeds, Burnley and Nice.
No official offers have come in for the 22-year-old, who Wolves have been monitoring since June.
The suggested price for Uche was £17 million, but as pressure mounts on the club to make a sale, Wolves could snap up this exciting talent for £13 million.
Christantus Uche will be one of the bargains of the summer
Everyone is aware of Getafe’s situation, and the closer it gets to deadline day, the more desperate they will become.
As such, the £13 million price tag could drop even further, and whoever manages to get it done will have picked up one of the bargains of the window.
With all three promoted sides in for Uche, this transfer could have serious implications on the relegation battle.
Wolves need to keep the lead in this race and finalise a deal for Uche. He’s a serious talent and someone who could give Vitor Pereira the X-factor his attack is crying out for.
