Wolves Agree Transfer Deal for Ladislav Krejci from Girona

Wolverhampton Wanderers have agreed to sign defender Ladislav Krejci from Girona for about €35 million. The Czech player is set to join the Premier League team, with personal terms settled and an announcement coming soon.

WOLVES SET TO SIGN KREJCI FROM GIRONA

Wolves have finalized a deal with Girona for Krejci, reportedly around €35 million. Krejci joined Girona in 2024 and became one of La Liga‘s top defenders, playing 38 matches. After Girona’s relegation struggles last season, they managed to stay in La Liga but want to offload their most expensive players and allowed Krejci to leave to balance their finances. Wolves acted quickly to sign the 25-year-old, who was also targeted by other European clubs. Krejci agreed to join, and the transfer will be completed in the coming days.

KREJCI’S IMPACT AND WHAT HE BRINGS TO WOLVES

His physicality and leadership made him a key figure in Girona’s defense, where he contributed significantly to their defensive efforts, scoring three goals and providing two assists last season. Wolves finished 16th in the Premier League last year and struggled defensively, conceding 65 goals. Manager Vitor Pereira aims to strengthen the squad to reduce the gap to European qualification places. Wolves have lost their opener to Manchester City by 4-0 and will now be facing Bournemouth.

WHAT’S NEXT FOR WOLVES AND GIRONA?

Wolves will soon integrate Krejci into the squad before their first Premier League game against Bournemouth. The Cherries finished 9th last season, and both teams are expected to be mid-table contenders this year especially as Bournemouth lost important players like Kerkez, Zabarnyi and Ouattara in this transfer window. Girona must find a replacement for Krejci as they prepare for La Liga after losing their opener to Rayo Vallecano 3-1. Girona’s next La Liga fixture is against Villarreal. Both clubs aim to push for European spots after impressive seasons, and the next weeks are crucial for both Wolves and Girona to adjust their squads for upcoming challenges.
