Wolves defender Danny Batth has joined Middlesbrough on a season-long loan.

Batth, 27, is club captain at Molineux but has not featured for the Premier League club this term.

He made 21 appearances as Wolves gained promotion last season as Championship winners.

Batth brings a wealth of experience, having clocked up 289 career appearances since starting out with Colchester United in 2009. He signed for Wolves after just one season with the Us and went on to hold the unique distinction of having loan spells with both Sheffield clubs.
