Wolves agree a deal for Ajax wide man
Wolves have agreed a deadline day deal for Ajax winger Carlos Forbs.
The club have been focusing on bringing in a central defender and a wide player on loan on the final day of the window and have now struck a deal to take Forbs on loan for the season with a €13.5million (around £11.3million) buy option.
The 20-year-old is now flying from the Netherlands to England to complete his medical and finalise the deal before the transfer window slams shut at 11pm tonight.
The winger has spent time in the youth system at Man City having been taken to England from Sporting Lisbon.
After a number of years in the youth system at City, he departed for Ajax in a deal worth around €14million.
Last season he scored twice in 22 appearances for the Dutch side – and now he is set for a move to the Premier League.
As a result of this move, Wolves winger Chiquinho is being lined up for a potential loan before the window closes.
