Wolves have agreed to a €25 million transfer agreement.

Wolves are closing in on the acquisition of Andre from Fluminense, with the midfielder scheduled to have a medical at Molineux.

Gary O'Neil's team has agreed to sign the Brazil international for €25 million (£21 million) plus add-ons, with Andre due to go to England to complete his move to the Premier League.

The purchase is a record for Fluminense and will be viewed as a coup for Wolves, given interest in the 23-year-old from some of Europe's elite clubs. Manchester United and Liverpool have kept an eye on him, and Fulham has been heavily linked with a move for the midfielder in recent months.

Personal terms have been agreed, and Andre will become Wolves' sixth signing of the summer window. His presence will be a welcome boost for O'Neil, given his team's openness in their 6-2 defeat to Chelsea last weekend.

Following the sales of Max Kilman (£40 million) to West Ham United and Pedro Neto (£54 million) to Chelsea, O'Neil indicated that Wolves would not conduct any additional activity.

Andre, on the other hand, appears to be on his way to Molineux before Friday's Premier League transfer deadline, where he will join colleagues Matheus Cunha and Joao Gomes from Brazil.

Who did Wolves sign Andre?

Andre is a defensive midfielder who rose through the ranks at Fluminense to become one of South America's hottest properties.

In 2021, he was voted the Best Newcomer in the Campeonato Brasileiro Série A, and in 2022, he made the Team of the Season. Last year, he played an important role in the club's first Copa Libertadores win.

He has five senior caps for Brazil after making his debut with the Selecao in 2023.

From Chloe Kelly to Naomi Girma, here are ten players that could move in January.

As the winter transfer market opens, we take a look at ten prominent players who may change teams next month. Naomi Girma Age 24 Nationality US Club San Diego Wave Girma, widely regarded as one of the top centre-backs in the world and recently named to the FIFA top XI, is nearing the final year of her contract, and speculation has grown that she may leave San Diego. Only the world's wealthiest clubs are expected to be able to afford her this window, and she has been connected with French giants Lyon, although Chelsea are also looking for a central defender after Kadeisha Buchanan suffered a season-ending anterior cruciate ligament damage. Chloe Kelly Age 26 Nationality English Club Manchester City Having started only one Women’s Super League game this season, a move away from Manchester City may be the solution for Kelly to secure more match minutes in her quest for a seat on the plane to Euro 2025 with the Lionesses next summer. The winger, whose winning goal clinched England vic...

Borussia Dortmund is 'considering a bid' for Marcus Rashford.

Borussia Dortmund is investigating a transfer for Marcus Rashford. According to the Athletic's David Ornstein, the Bundesliga club has joined the hunt for Manchester United's out-of-favour attacker in the summer. Rashford has become a peripheral character at Old Trafford with the arrival of Rúben Amorim, being dropped from four consecutive matchday lineups. He returned for a home loss to Newcastle but missed last weekend's draw at Liverpool due to illness, and his long-term chances remain bleak. Rashford has also been linked with Serie A giants Milan and Juventus, as well as many undisclosed Premier League suitors.

Why Kane’s Astonishing 73-Goal Season Blew Away the Ballon d'Or Competition.

Harry Kane did not win the 2026 Ballon d’Or because football finally decided to reward patience. He won because his season presented an extraordinary argument: 73 goals in 65 appearances for club and country, including 61 in 51 matches for Bayern Munich. Kylian Mbappé finished second and Lamine Yamal third, but Kane’s combination of record-breaking production and collective achievement ultimately placed him above both. The numbers require one important distinction. These were not 73 goals for Bayern, nor a calendar-year total assembled across parts of two campaigns. They comprised 61 club goals and 12 for England during the season under consideration. That clarity matters because an achievement this substantial deserves to be understood accurately, not enlarged through misleading comparisons. “Blew away the competition” describes the force of his candidacy rather than a verified landslide in voting points. The confirmed result establishes the finishing order; it does not, by itself, te...

Barcelona's final attempt to register Dani Olmo will face a court battle.

Barcelona's chances of having Dani Olmo and Pau Victor available for the rest of the season appear to be dwindling. After missing the deadline to remain registered for the remainder of the season, Barcelona delivered La Liga all of the necessary documentation for the sale of their VIP seats, a deal worth an estimated €110 million that would allow them to do so. However, due to the missing deadline, La Liga would not allow Barcelona to keep Olmo and Victor registered, as rules prohibit players from being registered twice. As a result, Barcelona's sole contractual option is to file a court appeal to their decision. According to MD, they have a variety of legal options. They may claim force majeure, which refers to unforeseeable situations that prevent them from assembling the documentation for La Liga, but legal experts say that is unlikely to qualify for that verdict. However, according to the Catalan daily, the most likely argument is that the registration period be extended...
