Wolves swoop for Diego Carlos from under Jose Mourinho's nose with £10m bid as Aston Villa defender's proposed move to Fenerbahce stalls

Wolves have made a rival £10million offer for Aston Villa's Diego Carlos as his on-off move to Fenerbahce stalled again last night.

The 31-year old had been expected to arrive in Istanbul on Monday night ahead of being presented as a Fenerbahce player but terms were still be finalised.

The Brazilian centre back was the main target for Jose Mourinho as Mail Sport reported earlier this month and a fee was agreed around £10m.

However, talks faltered and the deal seemingly fell through with Fenerbahce then trying and failing for Newcastle's Lloyd Kelly.
