Getafe’s president Angel Torres has confirm the imminent transfer of Nigeria international midfielder Uche Chrisantus to English Premier League side Wolverhampton Wanderers, OwnGoalNigeria.com reports.
Chrisantus was on for the entire duration of their 2-1 win over Sevilla yesterday in the La Liga, putting up another top notch performance to follow up his opening day display where he picked a goal and an assist in a 2-1 win over Celta Vigo.
However yesterday’s game will be his last in the colours of Getafe with a deal already agreed with Wolves for his transfer, a move the president said the only reason he’s selling the 22 year old is because of La Liga:
“We have to sell. We are ruining La Liga by continuously selling.”
“I am forced to sell him, I have no other choice. Tomorrow he undergoes the medical and the deal is signed with wolves.”
Reports say he will sign a five year deal later today.
