Transfer site sees Arias, Palmeiras target, lose value | OneFootball

Palmeiras is making progress in negotiations with Wolverhampton Wanderers, from England, for midfielder Jhon Arias. Verdão has made an offer of 25 million euros (just over R$ 154 million) and hopes to announce the Colombian in the coming days. However, the player's value may be a bit above the usual market rate.

According to Transfermarkt, a website specializing in transfers, Arias has been losing value since the end of the Club World Cup. Despite being a key player for Fluminense, who reached the tournament semifinals, the Colombian has not matched the same level of performance at Wolves and has seen his value drop.

In July, Arias was sold for around 20 million euros (R$ 130 million at the time), at a time when his market value had reached one of its highest points on the platform.

In England, Arias did not replicate the performance he had at Fluminense and was barely able to help Wolverhampton. In 29 matches, the Colombian scored two goals and provided one assist, and the team sits at the bottom of the English Championship, with only eight points earned.

The team's poor performance, combined with Arias' limited playing time, caused his market value to drop to 15 million euros (R$ 92.9 million), well below the 25 million offered by Palmeiras.

Palmeiras and Fluminense continue to monitor the player's situation, but it is unlikely that Wolves will release the player this window for a lower amount than that.
