Wolverhampton Wanderers 'agree £23m deal for Hwang Hee-chan'

Wolverhampton Wanderers have reportedly agreed a £23m deal with Red Bull Salzburg for Hwang Hee-chan.

The 23-year-old has been in impressive form for his Austrian club during the 2019-20 campaign, scoring nine times and contributing 14 assists in 22 appearances in all competitions.

The South Korea international scored against Liverpool in the Champions League earlier this season, while he has managed six goals and seven assists in 14 league outings.

According to the Hamburger Morgenpost, Wolves have agreed a £23m deal for the attacker, who will join the Premier League club when the January transfer window opens for business.

The report claims that a number of other clubs had been in the running for his services, but Wolves convinced the South Korean to make the move to Molineux.

Hwang has been with reigning Austrian champions Salzburg since 2015.
