Afobe, a product of Arsenal, is Wolves' top scorer this season having tallied nine goals while appearing in all 25 of the club's Championship fixtures. In his previous campaign, he netted 32 goals at Wolves and Milton Keyton Dons, where he was loaned out.
The reported £10-million fee marks an increase from Bournemouth's reported £8-million purchase of Tyrone Mings last year. Mings was the Cherries' club-record buy at the time, but suffered an injury to his anterior cruciate ligament in his Premier League debut.
