Wolves seal Krejci loan, seek Getafe's Uche before deadline

Wolverhampton Wanderers moved to strengthen their squad in the final days of the summer transfer window, completing a deal for Girona defender Ladislav Krejci and pursuing at least one high-profile attacking target, though that pursuit remained uncertain as the deadline approached. The centreback's arrival was confirmed as Wolves secured him on loan with a view to a permanent transfer, while negotiations over Getafe forward Christantus Uche showed movement but conflicting accounts about whether the move will be completed.

Krejci, 26, joined Wolves on a temporary basis with the agreement structured to become permanent if certain conditions are met. The player has reportedly signed terms on a multi-year contract that would take effect should the permanent option be triggered. Financial details varied across reports, with some accounts describing a modest loan fee and a conditional permanent fee in the low twenties of millions of pounds. The Czech international, who spent last season at Girona after signing from Sparta Prague, told the club website that the move was a dream and that he hopes his previous European experience will help his new team.
