BENIK Afobe has joined Wolves on loan until the end of the season.

The Cherries frontman sealed a dramatic return to Molineux in one of the January window's final deals.

Wolves are expected to confirm the swoop in the early hours of Thursday morning.

The Championship leaders have reportedly agreed to pay a loan fee, thought to be £1million, and to cover Afobe's wages.

Clubs are permitted until 1am to complete deals provided a deal sheet has been submitted.
