Wolves are close to agreement on a £15million deal for Fluminense winger Jhon Arias.
The 27-year-old Colombia international has enjoyed an impressive campaign at Fluminense with 13 assists.
He also helped the Brazilian side reach the Club World Cup semi-finals before being knocked out by Chelsea.
Arias was singled out for praise from Chelsea midfielder Enzo Fernandez in particular who said: ‘I asked Jhon Arias for his shirt because I know he was one of the best players in the Club World Cup.’
Arias played six times at the Club World Cup.
Since joining Fluminense from Colombian side Santa Fe in 2021, Arias has scored 47 goals in 229 appearances for the Brazilian outfit.

He made his international debut for Colombia in 2022, earning 31 caps and scoring three goals so far for his country.
Meanwhile, Wolves are saying midfielder Andre is not for sale despite interest from Juventus.
The 23-year-old, another former Fluminense man, has attracted attention after a strong season in the Wolves midfield.
Yet despite the interest, Wolves are understood to have no willingness to entertain offers for their impressive Brazilian.
He made 36 appearances for the Molineux side during the 2024/25 campaign, his first at the club.
