Wolves forward Jorgen Strand Larsen's initial season-long loan from Celta Vigo has been made permanent after certain clauses in his contract were met to automatically trigger the £23m deal.

The Norway international scored 14 Premier League goals last season and now has a four-year contract to keep him at Molineux until 2029.

Larsen scored eight goals after Vitor Pereira's arrival in December, and his overall total was the most by a Wolves player in their debut Premier League campaign.

"It's been a good first season in the Premier League," the 25-year-old said.

"I'm proud of what I've done. I've been able to take the steps earlier than I've done before. Previously when I moved to a new country, I've needed more time to get into it and score goals.

"As a striker, the team need you to score the goals and be on the end of the crosses, so to score 14 goals – and come back after my injuries and a little dip of form – it was a good season for me in that respect."

Are you happy with four more years of Larsen?
