Wolves are edging closer to completing the signing of midfield ace Romain Saiss.

French publication Ouest France report Saiss passed his medical with the Championship club on Wednesday, and is poised to put pen to paper on a deal.

L’Equipe reported yesterday that he had agreed terms, and would cost more than £3 million. Ouest France reported last night that Wolves and Angers were still haggling over a fee, but an agreement is not far off.

Saiss was at Molineux this week to watch the club’s EFL Cup win over Cambridge, before undergoing his medical the next day.

The defensive midfielder will have been impressed with what he saw, with Walter Zenga’s side easing to a 3-1 victory.

While he is leaving a top flight side in France to move to a second-tier English club, he will be hoping to help Wolves earn promotion to the Premier League. They have made a strong start, sitting third in the division after four matches.
