Wolves have confirmed the signing of Real Madrid defender Jesus Vallejo on a one-season loan deal.
The 22-year-old, who captained Spain to the U21 European Championship title in July, becomes Wolves' first signing of the summer.
Vallejo underwent a medical on Thursday and was at Molineux for Wolves' Europa League win over Crusaders.
The centre-back originally left Zaragoza to sign for Real Madrid in 2015, and spent two years on loan back to Zaragoza and to Eintracht Frankfurt.
He made seven appearances for the La Liga club last season, scoring once in their win against Villarreal in May, as he struggled with injuries.

More to offload. Mariano still have our 7 jersey. I feel that the number Hazard has (50) still makes him thinks that he doesn’t have great responsibility.
