Wolves boss Jackett confirms plans to deal in Agudelo

Wolves boss Kenny Jackett has confirmed hopes of signing USA striker Juan Agudelo.

The former Stoke City signing, who is on trial for a second week, is pursuing a Cypriot passport to allow him to play in England and has told Wolves he wants to sign for them.

Head coach Jackett told the Express & Star: "The option he's looking to at the moment is Wolves,. He'd like to make it at Wolves. We'd probably assess a short-term contract at first.

"He's here, he likes it, he wants to stay and he'd be very interested in coming to Wolves."

As for the work permit, Jackett said: "We could get it. He played for Utrecht last season, so it doesn't seem as if there's a problem and we'd be OK.

"He's available and he's looking for a club in this country."
