Would seem to be an excellent outcome.
Creative quality player, surely a first 11 starter alongside JSL.
Probably need a more prolific goalscorer as the other new player in the front line but I am pretty happy Wolves have got this one over the line, assuming Wolves have!

Arias' deal is indeed done as stated by RKO.
Arias' originally signed a new deal with Fluminense which placed his transfer fee at 15m Euros for all non-Brazil nations but the fee had to be paid in full.
Wolves wanted to pay in installments and so had to offer more.
The fee payable is 17m, 9.5m paid up front and the rest in installments.
Excellent job by Wolves and for once saw the job done through!

More news:
Pablo Garcia move in doubt as he wants to move to AC Milan as they are a 'progressive' club which he says Wolves are not BUT AC have offered less than Wolves so Almeria would like the extra money.
More to come with this, no doubt.

Wolves not progressive-well he's right on that one-and we know who to blame

Chicken and egg.
But hopefully if we can show players we are serious by signing good players other good players will be more willing to come.
Fear that was Guessand's concern as well but now if Arias has arrived that might give a fresh impetus to efforts?

The only guarantee of attracting good players is to win games and consistently be a top 10 prem club.
Having the ambition and want isn’t enough. Players want to see us walk the walk not just talk the talk.

He will play his final match for Fluminense tonight so he can say a proper goodbye and get a proper goodbye from the fans.

I think if we buy 7 or 8 very good players (which we won't) then our team would probably reach around halfway up/down the league. That is still not much to look forward to each year.

I don't reckon that Wolves could ever become a consistent, year on year challenger for the top six spots unless we spend over half a billion, build a new ground (like Everton and Spurs) and have the current top six stand still and stagnate. Unfortunately it is what it is and as a big Wolfies fan that saddens me. Money has taken over the game.
On the bright side we have a wonderfully exciting cricket test team.

Let's hope he doesn't get injured saying farewell tonight!
