Bordeaux's coach Ricardo Gomes confirmed to "Sud-Ouest" newspaper that FC Santos' midfielder Wendel will join the French club.

« He arrives. It's a player who has exactly the same profile than Bruno Cheyrou, versatile, who can play midfield in center, on left side or in defense. I had asked to play at this post when he was with me in the Olympic squad. He is a hard-working player », said Ricardo.

Wendel is waited on Thursday at Bordeaux where he will pass a medical examination before signing a 4-year contract. « The contract of my life » explained the player before taking off to France.
