"I'm delighted to be back. When I was here before I was scoring goals, doing well and enjoying my time here. But then I called back by Wolves as they were bit short and needed me.
"It's a good forward line at Shrewsbury and very potent for this league. I think between us we'll get a lot of goals."
McAlinden, who becomes Shrewsbury's eighth summer signing, has scored once in 19 appearances for Wolves, 13 of them as substitute, since signing his first professional contract in the summer of 2012.
He has a year left on his current deal at Molineux, having signed a two-year contract in April 2014.
