Wolves boss Kenny Jackett has confirmed he is keen on signing Arsenal striker Benik Afobe.
The 21-year-old has yet to break through into the Gunners' first team but scored 19 goals in 30 appearances during a successful loan spell with MK Dons during the first half of this season.
That tally included bagging a brace in the 4-0 Capital One Cup upset of Manchester United and a hat-trick in the 6-0 Sky Bet League One thrashing of Colchester.
"It's still ongoing and he's in this week, currently doing a medical," Jackett told Wolves Player.
The Wanderers manager also revealed Iceland midfielder Bjorn Sigurdarson is mulling over a move to FC Copenhagen.
"He's thinking about that move at present, but there has been interest in him and an approach from Copenhagen, so the ball is now in Bjorn's court as to whether he wants to take that move or not," added Jackett.
