Villarreal midfielder Gabriel Kunda Jr is attracting major English interest.

The Express & Star says Wolves have joined Aston Villa and Watford in the race to sign former Atletico Madrid and Villarreal midfielder Kunda Jr.

The 24-year-old has been touted as a future world star, but has failed to live up to potential with various injuries and disciplinary issues halting his progress.

Birmingham City are also interested in the free agent, but Wolves and Villa remain favourites to land the Zambian playmaker.
