# Wolves: Guilherme Arana linked with January move

**Wolves are interested in signing Atletico Mineiro left-back Guilherme Arana in the January transfer window, according to journalist Ekrem Konur.**

### The Lowdown: Wolves still without Jonny

Bruno Lages’s men have recovered impressively from a disappointing start to the season and now sit 11th in the Premier League, picking up three wins from their last four matches.

While Wolves’ squad looks relatively strong, signing a new left-back could be a priority in January, with Jonny still recovering from a cruciate ligament injury and no certainty he will return the same player.

### The Latest: Arana linked with move

According to Konur on [Twitter](https://twitter.com/Ekremkonur/status/1452609079441072138?s=20) on Monday, Wolves have added Arana ‘to their transfer list‘ and ‘plan to talk‘ to his club about a move in January.

The 24-year-old has [one cap](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/guilherme-arana/profil/spieler/346766) to his name for Brazil, also [scoring nine goals and registering 15 assists](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/guilherme-arana/alletore/spieler/346766) in 81 appearances for Mineiro.

### The Verdict: Exciting acquisition?

Arana is a relative unknown to European fans, even though he [played 25 times](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/guilherme-arana/alletore/spieler/346766) for Sevilla earlier in his career, but he could be an exciting signing for Wolves.

His aforementioned statistics suggest he provides a goal threat from left-back, whether it be through creating or scoring himself, and he is at a good age, in terms of his peak hopefully still being yet to come.

Arana could thrive at wing-back if Lage continues to play a three-man defence, too, with his versatility an added bonus.
