English Premier League side Wolverhampton Wanderers have launched a €20 million bid for Getafe’s Nigerian midfielder, Christantus Uche, as they step up plans to reinforce their squad ahead of the new season.
Transfer expert Fabrizio Romano confirmed the offer on X, noting:
“Wolves have submitted official bid to Getafe worth €20m for Christantus Uche. Negotiations underway to get deal done as #WWFC want new striker asap.”
While Romano hinted at Uche as a striking option, the 22-year-old has built his reputation as a versatile midfielder with a strong defensive engine and attacking flair.
Uche, who arrived at Getafe from Ceuta last summer, has quickly established himself as a key figure, scoring four goals in 33 La Liga appearances. His standout display came in the 2-0 win over Celta Vigo, where he scored, assisted, and earned Man of the Match honors.
The Nigerian’s rapid rise has drawn interest from several European clubs, but Wolves are currently leading the chase as they look to inject creativity and depth into their midfield.
If the deal is finalized, Uche will make his first move to the Premier League, joining the growing list of Nigerians leaving their mark in England’s top flight.
