FOOTBALL NEWS – WOLVES SIGN JONNY OTTO FOR £18M FROM ATLETICO
Wolverhampton Wanderers have signed Spanish defender Jonny Otto from Atletico Madrid for a club record fee.
Wolves did not disclosed the fee but Sky Sports reported the club paid £18million for the 24-year-old, equalling the fee they paid Middlesbrough for winger Adama Traore last year.
Otto has agreed a permanent deal at Molineux until 2023, having spent the first half of the season on loan from the Spanish La Liga club.
THE CLUBS REACHED AN AGREEMENT AND ASKED ME WHAT I THOUGHT AND REALLY FROM THE FIRST MOMENT I SAID YES TO WOLVES BECAUSE THE TRUTH IS THAT I AM VERY HAPPY TO BE HERE.
Otto, who has made 20 Premier League appearances this season, can play as full back or wing back on either side of the pitch, allowing manager Nuno Espirito Santo to use him in a variety of formations.
He earned a first Spain cap against Wales in October.
