The 25-year-old was a substitute for <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theguardian.com\/football\/2026\/jan\/31\/wolves-bournemouth-premier-league-match-report\" data-link-name=\"in body link\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Wolves\u2019s 2-0 home defeat by Bournemouth<\/a> on Saturday.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\">Palace have offered \u00a343m, plus \u00a35m in add-ons after appearing to go cold on the deal but, with Wolves looking to be active in the winter window, they have accepted the bid. The FA Cup winners had last week verbally agreed in principle to sign Strand Larsen for \u00a345m, plus \u00a35m in add-ons, but have now come to an agreement over the final makeup of the deal. The player is expected to undergo a medical on Sunday.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\">The deal allows Jean-Philippe Mateta to seal a \u00a330m switch to Milan, who, after talks with Palace for the France forward, is undergoing a medical. The 28-year-old had told Palace he wanted to leave.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\">Wolves are pursuing deals for the Southampton striker Adam Armstrong and the Marseille midfielder Angel Gomes before Monday\u2019s transfer deadline.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\">Nottingham Forest have signed Stefan Ortega on a permanent deal from Manchester City, the goalkeeper signing a contract until the end of the season. The 33-year-old will provide competition for Matz Sels after No 2 John Victor was ruled out for the season.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\">Ortega made 56 appearances for Pep Guardiola\u2019s side after joining in 2022. Edu, Forest\u2019s global head of football, said: \u201cWhen it became clear the goalkeeper position was somewhere we needed to address, Stefan stood out straight away. He will provide great competition for our group of goalkeepers, and will help the team on and off the pitch.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Nottingham Forest\u2019s new signing Stefan Ortega is unveiled before their game with Crystal Palace at the City Ground.

The Netherlands international joined <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theguardian.com\/football\/sunderland\" data-link-name=\"in body link\" data-component=\"auto-linked-tag\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Sunderland<\/a> on loan from RB Leipzig last summer and has so far made 17 appearances for the Black Cats. Arne Slot worked with the versatile defender, who can play across the back line and also as a defensive midfielder, while at Feyenoord with the pair winning the Eredivisie in 2023.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\">Slot has made it plain he wants to bulk up Liverpool\u2019s squad for the remainder of the season with both Jeremie Frimpong and Conor Bradley injured, while Joe Gomez is also currently out of action. Sunderland would want compensation for the deal to go ahead and ideally recruit a replacement.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\">Slot would like to bring in two players during this window and the champions have been linked with the Rennes centre-back J\u00e9r\u00e9my Jacquet. Chelsea are also interested, although the Ligue 1 club are more open to a summer transfer.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\">The former Everton striker Ademola Lookman is in advanced talks to join Atl\u00e9tico Madrid from Atalanta in a \u00a335m deal.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\">The Brighton forward Tommy Watson, who signed from Sunderland last summer, has joined Championship high-flyers Millwall on loan until the end of the season.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Crystal Palace have had a \u00a348m bid for J\u00f8rgen Strand Larsen accepted by Wolves, after the south London&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":402558,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[49,50,51,47,52,48],"class_list":["post-402557","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-headlines","tag-headlines","tag-news","tag-top-news","tag-top-stories","tag-topnews","tag-topstories"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/402557","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=402557"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/402557\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/402558"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=402557"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=402557"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=402557"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
