Emmanuel Agbadou posts classy message on Instagram ahead of Wolves transfer
Wolves fans could very well get their first signing of the January transfer window today.
Wolves have been focusing on signing new defenders this month, having conceded a whopping 45 goals in 20 games in the Premier League.
Pereira is set to sign two defensive recruits for Wolves, and it looks as though the first will be announced imminently.
Earlier this week, Wolves reached an agreement with Reims to sign Emmanuel Agbadou.
The 27-year-old central defender had been due to make an appearance at Molineux on Monday night for Wolves’ game with Nottingham Forest. But he did not receive a work permit in time, and only flew to England last night.
He’ll finalise his move to Wolves today, and it could be announced later. Wolves hope he’ll be available for Saturday’s FA Cup game with Bristol City.
But the move is all set to go through, with Agbadou now posting a farewell message on Instagram.

The hope is that Agbadou will come in and really help to shore up the leaky backline.
At times this season, Wolves have been all over the place, and reinforcements are undoubtedly needed this month.
Agbadou is a physically imposing centre-half. But he’s also decent on the ball, with Agbadou currently third in Ligue 1 this term for most successful long passes (77).
It seems the wheels are very much in motion now, and last night on Instagram, Agbadou actually did post a farewell message to those who have supported him at Reims.
In the lengthy and classy post, he said: “Dear Reims players, it is with great emotion that I address these words to you. Thank you to you, dear supporters, whose unconditional passion and support have always carried me.
“Thank you to the leaders for the trust and the opportunity that allowed me to grow, both professionally and personally. Thank you to my teammates, with whom I shared unforgettable moments and battles that will remain engraved in me. The Stade de Reims shaped me, and I will forever remain a Reims player.
