The goalkeeper joins after both clubs confirmed the deal after personal terms were agreed and the player passed his medical. Now focus turns to how he will fit into his new team. Unlike many transfers, this move came without rival competition, allowing Wolverhampton to finalise the signing smoothly. Defensively, Wolverhampton are sitting around the league average this season, at 1.5 goals conceded per game.
