Wolves Expected To Reach Agreement Of Another Portugal Star

Will this madness ever stop?

Wolverhampton is set to be the most populous city in the UK of having Portuguese residents, with the Midlands side now linked with yet another signing from the nation.

We're kidding, of course, but Wolves now has more Portuguese players in the squad than Porto.

This is an unbelievable statistic, and more stats such as this will surely make the rounds further down the line as Portugal international Pep is reportedly linked to the newly-promoted side.

Via SportsWitness, Turkey's NTV Spor have reported on Sunday afternoon that Besiktas are set to part ways with Pepe and the former Real Madrid man is interested in a move to Wolves, where the side have added to their squad following promotion, and look a real threat. Their aims should be higher than simply surviving next season.

Pepe was at one time considered one of the best centre-backs in the world, but what has often let him down is his attitude on the pitch and his reputation for getting sent off in important games.

Now 35, Pep has calmed down a bit, and should a deal be wrapped up between his current club Besiktas - in a deal thought to be around £7 million - Wolves can expect a defender who can bring experience and structure.
