Wolves Scout Fluminense Star for Summer Deal
Wolves’ summer keeps getting busier, and they aren't stopping anytime soon. After a season of ups and downs, the club has approached this transfer window with urgency. Earlier in the summer, Wolves parted ways with several key players, including some long-standing contributors who had become the stars of the squad. While the departures have left noticeable gaps, they’ve also created space for a fresh wave of talent to come in and reshape the team. With pre-season preparations well underway and the Premier League season fast approaching, Wolves are wasting no time. It’s clear that the club has a plan, and if the latest rumors are any indication, they’re not afraid to look abroad to find the right fit.
One of the latest names to emerge on Wolves’ radar is Jhon Arias, a Colombian winger currently playing for Fluminense. Wolves have officially requested information about the 27-year-old, signaling serious interest. Sources suggest there’s already an informal understanding between the clubs, and a formal bid could be on the way. Arias has been a standout performer in Brazil’s top flight, contributing one goal and four assists in 11 Série A appearances this season.
Overall, Arias looks like a solid and strategic addition to the Wolves squad. While he may not be a big name in Europe, his performances in Brazil speak for themselves. With the departures of Matheus Cunha and Rayan Aït-Nouri, Wolves are going to need players like Jørgen Strand Larsen and Hwang Hee-chan to step up in the final third. Arias could also be part of the solution, either playing more centrally or being set out wide, where he can use his pace and creativity. He could be exactly what the Wolves need to fill the gap.
Arias is currently valued at around €15–17 million, though Fluminense may hold out for more given his importance to the squad and the growing interest from Europe. He remains under contract until 2026, which puts the Brazilian club in a strong negotiating position. Wolves will likely need to offer around €19–21 million just to grab serious attention. Tottenham and West Ham have also expressed interest in Arias, adding more competition. If Wolves want to land him, they’ll need to act quickly and present a compelling offer before another Premier League rival swoops in.
With Jhon Arias, Wolves can push to take their attack to the next level. If they’re able to sign him, it would add another important piece to the club’s rebuilding puzzle. His skillset and mindset align well with Pereira’s system. Now, it’s just a matter of whether Wolves can move fast enough to get the deal done.
