Anderson Talisca is on the cusp of moving to Championship side Wolves for €25million (£20million), according to reports in the Portuguese media.

Portuguese newspaper A Bola is reporting that the transfer is expected to be confirmed this weekend.

The move for Talisca is said to be so advanced that the club have already secured a work permit for the 22-year-old.

Talisca has been heavily linked with a move to Premier League side Liverpool, but it seems as though the second-tier side have stolen a march on the Anfield club.

Benfica duo Helder Costa and Pele are also reported to be on the cusp of a move to Wolves, according to the same newspaper. Local reports suggest they will join the club on loan.

Attacking midfielder Talisca has scored 12 goals in 52 games for Benfica since signing for them from minnows Bahia in 2014.

His good form earned him a call up to Brazil's Under-23 side in 2014. Talisca has gone on to make four appearances at that level for his national team.

Jeff Shi, an investment director for Fosun International, said investment will be 'no problem'

The signing of three players from the Portuguese side would be regarded as something of a coup for Wolves, who have recently been taken over by Chinese conglomerate Fosun International.

Investment director Jeff Shi has revealed that the firm will invest over £20million into the club in the next two years.

He said: 'Any investment into club will not be problem for us. For players we should think about it the smart way.
