WOLVES SIGN JHON ARIAS FROM FLUMINENSE!
Wolverhampton Wanderers further made reinforcements to their squad signing midfielder Jhon Arias from Brazilian Serie-A side Fluminense on a 4-year deal with an option to extend for a further year.
Arias impressed during the most recent FIFA Club World Cup where Fluminense crashed out in the semifinals losing 2-0 to Chelsea who went all the way to win the competition. The Colombian will be sloted straight in the position that was occupied by Matheus Cunha who has since joined Manchester United.
Below is the full statement released by Wolves yesterday announcing the arrival of Arias:
"Wolves have completed the signing of Colombian Jhon Arias from Brazilian side Fluminense on a four-year deal, with the option of a further 12 months."
"The 27-year-old attacker moves to the Old Gold after impressing at the Club World Cup this summer and will reunite with Andre, who he played with at Fluminense, and international teammate Yerson Mosquera."
"Capable of playing across the attacking line behind a central striker, Arias arrives with both personal accolades and team titles to his name from playing in Colombia and Brazil and has 31 international caps to date."
"Arias’ professional career began with Patriotas in his home nation in 2018 and he played more than 100 times in Colombia, also gaining experience on loan with Llaneros, before permanent moves to America de Cali and Santa Fe as a youngster."
"During his time with America de Cali he claimed a first title – the Colombian Championship in 2020 – while his move to Rio de Janeiro and Fluminense arrived one year later."
