Wolves are on the verge of completing a £19 million deal for Celta Vigo's promising attacker Fer Lopez, who is scheduled to undergo a medical at the club this Wednesday. The 21-year-old, who has been a standout performer in La Liga, is expected to be the first signing of the summer under new manager Vitor Pereira.

Lopez, who joined Celta's academy at the age of 10, made his senior debut in October 2024 and quickly established himself as a key player. In just 20 appearances across all competitions, he scored four goals, including a brace in a commanding 7-0 victory over Salamanca in the Copa Del Rey.

Wolves have been actively seeking a versatile attacking midfielder capable of playing across the front three and in the No. 10 role, and Lopez fits the bill perfectly. His arrival comes as Wolves continue to reshape their squad, having already sold Matheus Cunha to Manchester United and Rayan Ait-Nouri to Manchester City, raising nearly £100 million in the process.

While the club is still in the market for a replacement for Ait-Nouri, they are also awaiting a decision from captain Nelson Semedo regarding his future. The right-back has yet to sign a new contract amid interest from Galatasaray.

This move signifies Wolves' intent to build a competitive team capable of challenging in the Premier League, and Lopez's addition is a testament to their commitment to nurturing young talent. Fans will be eager to see how the young Spaniard adapts to the rigors of English football and contributes to Wolves' ambitions in the upcoming season.
