Wolves defender agrees loan move
Wolves defender Ki-Jana Hoever has agreed a loan move to Sheffield United.
The 22-year-old right-back joined Wolves on their pre-season tours of Marbella and Miami this summer, but has now agreed a switch to the Championship side.
The deal is expected to be completed soon and will include a season-long loan with no option to buy Hoever permanently.
Wolves paid an initial £9million for the Dutchman from Liverpool in 2020 but he has struggled to hold down a spot in the first team.
He left for his first loan in June 2022, joining PSV Eindhoven, but the defender failed to make any impact before being recalled in the winter to join Stoke.
Hoever rejoined Stoke last season and made 44 appearances in all competitions, 40 of which came in the Championship, in a successful year for the Dutchman.
He is now aiming to continue that success in the second tier of English football when he joins the Blades.
Hoever was an unused substitute in the Stateside Cup game against West Ham and was not included in the squad to face Crystal Palace on Wednesday.
