Wolves midfielder Marshall Munetsi is poised to join Paris FC on loan until the end of the season.
The 29-year-old has been allowed to leave by boss Rob Edwards, although there is no option for the Ligue 1 side to buy him.
Edwards and the club have opted to let Munetsi go as he does not fit well enough into the head coach's system and his playing time would have been limited with the emergence of Mateus Mane.
Allowing him to move on loan also enables the midfielder to maintain his value and gives Wolves a better option to sell him at the right time, most likely in the summer, as they brace themselves for relegation to the Championship with the side bottom of the Premier League.
He has started just once under Edwards, the 2-0 defeat to Crystal Palace in November – the manager's first game in charge.
Munetsi started 12 times in the second half of last season under Vitor Pereira to help Wolves finish 16th.
He moved to Molineux for £16m from Reims last February and has made 31 appearances, scoring four goals, with his last strike coming in October's 3-2 defeat to Burnley.
Paris FC are 15th in Ligue 1 but beat neighbours Paris St-Germain 1-0 in the Coupe de France on Monday.
