Wolves have signed defender Rayan Ait-Nouri from Angers on a five-year deal.

The France Under-21 international spent last season on loan at Molineux, making 24 appearances and scoring one goal.

"He proved last season that he's a very talented player, with lots of potential - I thought he did well and kicked on towards the end of the season," Wolves technical director Scott Sellars said.

The 20-year-old is new Wolves manager Bruno Lage's third signing after Francisco Trincao and Yerson Mosquera.

Meanwhile Portuguese defender Ruben Vinagre has signed for Sporting Lisbon on a season-long loan deal.

The 22-year-old, who has made 70 appearances for Wolves, spent last season on loan at Olympiakos and Famalicao.

The Portuguese champions have an option to sign Vinagre permanently at end of the season.
