Wolves forward Jhon Arias is reportedly nearing a transfer away from the club this month.
As per a report from Globo Esporte, Arias has finalized a pre-contract deal with Palmeiras, and both clubs are now working on the necessary paperwork for the transfer.
The 28-year-old Colombian is expected to make a move valued at €25 million to the Brazilian side next week.
Arias Seeks New Opportunities
This season, Arias has participated in 23 Premier League matches for Wolves but has scored just one goal. His inconsistent form raises questions about whether he can regain his best performance with Palmeiras. Undoubtedly, he is a talented player capable of fulfilling various roles, including that of a center-forward or winger. If he can rebuild his confidence, he could prove to be a valuable asset for Palmeiras.
In addition, Wolves have agreed to let Jorgen Strand Larsen depart.
Wolves’ Fight for Survival
Currently positioned at the bottom of the league table, Wolves are struggling to avoid relegation. The loss of key players like Arias and Larsen will only exacerbate their challenges. It remains to be seen if they can somehow avoid dropping to the lower division this season, as they are currently among the favorites for relegation.
Arias aims to revive his career in Brazil, where he hopes to secure regular playing time as he seeks to establish himself as a crucial player and potentially win titles with Palmeiras in the future.
With the prospect of playing in the English second division looming, it seems like a timely decision for him to seek new opportunities.
