Diego Costa: Wolves set to sign striker after successful work permit appeal

Diego Costa's visa was granted by the Football Association after he appealed.

He signed as an out-of-contract player and has agreed a deal to stay until next summer.

Costa was denied a permit because he didn't meet the points criteria.

He last played for a team in Brazil.

The application was approved by Wolves.

Costa is expected to arrive in England on Wednesday evening and join Bruno Lage's team.

There is a chance that Wolves will be without a recognised forward for Saturday's trip toLiverpool.

It is not known if Lage will pick Costa in his squad.

The international break is on Saturday, 17 September.
