Wolves schedule medical for Flamengo midfielder Joao Gomes ahead of his £15m move to Molineux… with the Premier League club set to land their biggest transfer target to help them in their bid to stay in the highest category.

  • Wolves have scheduled a medical for Joao Gomes early next week
  • The Brazilian midfielder is set to complete his £15m move to Molineux

Wolves are getting closer to completing the signing of Joao Gomes, with the Flamengo midfielder due to undergo his medical early next week.

The Premier League club have been chasing the 21-year-old throughout January and have now agreed a £15m fee with their Brazilian counterparts.

Gomes’ medical has been scheduled, and the transfer is set to conclude before Tuesday’s deadline.

Despite not turning 22 until next month, Gomes already has 117 appearances for Flamengo, and will give Julen Lopetegui another option in midfield as Wolves look to move away from the relegation zone.

If Wolves get over the line, Gomes could be ready to go straight for his team for their home game against Liverpool next Saturday.

As Gomes prepares to arrive at Molineux, Wolves have sent another player out the door, with Ki-Jana Hoever joining Stoke Championship on loan.

Hoever completed the temporary move on Friday and will remain at the Bet365 Stadium until the end of the season.

The 21-year-old spent the first half of the season at PSV Eindhoven after Bruno Lage decided that was not part of his plans.

He recently returned from the Netherlands, and Lopetegui has also opted to let him leave to gain more minutes at Stoke.
