Benfica attacker Anderson Talisca has reportedly arrived in the UK to finalise his transfer to Championship side Wolverhampton Wanderers.
The 22-year-old had been courted by Liverpool in recent weeks but in a surprise move, Talisca instead opted to join the Midlands outfit.
Last week Wolves announced a takeover by Chinese conglomerate Fosun International, who will pay a Championship record transfer fee of £20m to secure the services of the Brazilian as they target a speedy return to the top flight.
According to O Jogo, Talisca's agent Jorge Mendes was in Wolverhampton on Thursday to finalise the deal, with Talisca following today to undergo a medical and sign paperwork.
The newspaper claims that Wolves will officially unveil their marquee signing this weekend, possibly during Saturday's pre-season friendly with Swansea City at Molineux.
