Wolves Set to Seal First Summer Signing as Fer Lopez Prepares for Medical Following £19.5M Agreement
Wolverhampton Wanderers are on the brink of completing their first signing of the summer, with Spanish forward Fer Lopez scheduled for a medical examination on Wednesday.
The 21-year-old is expected to arrive at Molineux from La Liga outfit Celta Vigo after the two clubs agreed on a transfer fee believed to be in the region of £19.5 million over the weekend.
Lopez’s impending arrival marks a key moment in Wolves’ transfer business, as the Premier League side looks to revamp their squad ahead of the 2025/26 campaign.
With attacking options depleted following the recent exits of Pablo Sarabia and Matheus Cunha, new head coach Vitor Pereira has made bolstering his frontline a priority — and Lopez is viewed as a player capable of injecting pace, creativity, and goals into the squad.
Having impressed in Spain’s top flight with his sharp movement and technical ability, Lopez is seen as a high-upside talent who can be molded into a central figure under Pereira’s system.
Assuming he clears his medical without issue, the move is expected to be confirmed in the coming days, kicking off what could be a busy summer of rebuilding at Molineux.
