Wolverhampton Wanderers are reportedly closing in on the £3million signing of Chicago Fire goalkeeper Gabriel Slonina.
The report from the Express and Star states that the 18-year-old is close to a move to Molineux, despite links with some of Europe’s heavyweights in Real Madrid, Bayern Munich and Chelsea, Wolves are the frontrunners to sign the goalkeeper.
While reports linking Slonina with a move to Europe have suggested that a fee of £10million would be enough to sign the teenager, who has played seven times for America’s youth sides. However, with the Major League Soccer campaign not finishing until October and the 2022 World Cup starting in November, the report suggests that any move for the goalkeeper is more likely to not be completed until the January transfer window, or even the summer of 2023.
