Wolves remain in the market for a centre-back but it will not be West Ham's Nayef Aguerd.

There was interest from Molineux in the defender, who cost the Hammers 拢28m from Rennes two years ago, but he rejected them earlier in the week.

It did at least allow Wolves to move on long before deadline day and Aston Villa's Diego Carlos has been one under consideration but he is expected to stay at Villa Park, with the club having rejected an offer from Fulham earlier this month.

Wolves, though, are content with their defensive options if they are unable to bring in a centre-back to follow Crystal Palace goalkeeper Sam Johnstone, and are poised to seal a move for Fluminense's Brazil midfielder Andre.
