DONE DEAL: Wolves sign Middlesbrough winger Adama Traore

Wolves have completed the signing of Middlesbrough winger Adama Traore.

Wolves have signed Spanish winger Traore for a club-record fee after meeting the £18m release clause in his Middlesbrough contract.

The 22-year-old has signed a five-year contract at Molineux.

Traore is Wolves' fifth new signing of the summer, following the arrivals of Rui Patricio, Jonny Castro Otto, Joao Moutinho and Raul Jimenez.

Wolves begin their first top-flight campaign since 2011-12 by hosting Everton on Saturday.

Their previous record signing was Portugal midfielder Ruben Neves, who joined from Porto for about £16m last year.
