Wolves have clinched the signing of Real Madrid defender Jesus Vallejo.

Wolves have signed Vallejo on a season-long loan.

The 22-year-old becomes Wolves' first signing of the transfer window, on the back of captaining Spain to under-21 European Championship glory this summer.

The loan spell with Wolves will be Vallejo's third away from the Bernabeu, where he moved in 2015 from Real Zaragoza.

Following a temporary return to his former club, the youngster experienced the Bundesliga with Eintracht Frankfurt, playing regularly during the 2016/17 campaign.

Vallejo made seven of his 19 Madrid appearances last season and recovered from injury to net his first La Liga goal against Villarreal in May.
