New Wolves boss Julen Lopetegui has made another move to improve his backroom staff.

The former Sevilla coach has secured the appointment of Borja de Alba as one of his assistants.

De Alba was involved during first-team training when the squad returned to the club's Compton base on Saturday.

Lopetegui is the man tasked with ensuring that Wolves stay in the Premier League this season.

Like boss Lopetegui, De Alba has left Sevilla for the job at Wolves.

He posted a parting message last week, which read: "It's time to face new professional challenges... and with a knot in the stomach, it's time to say see you later! Hopefully one day our paths will cross again."
