Wolves' £10m bid for Red Star Belgrade defender Nasser Djiga has been accepted.

The Premier League strugglers want another centre-back having lost out on Kevin Danso to Tottenham. They had agreed terms with Danso but had two bids rejected by Ligue 1 side Lens.

Burkina Faso international Djiga, 22, looks set to move to Molineux and join Emmanuel Agbadou as a new centre-back after Agbadou moved from Reims for £16.6m earlier this month.

Fourth-bottom Wolves have conceded 52 goals this season, the third-worst defence in the league.
