Villa sign Dendoncker from Wolves

-

Aston Villa have confirmed the Deadline Day signing of Leander Dendoncker from Wolves.

The Belgium international has moved across the Midlands from Molineux to Villa Park after an undisclosed fee, thought to be ?13m, was agreed between the two clubs earlier on Thursday.

The length of the contract he has signed has not been disclosed at this stage.

Dendoncker, 27, made 159 appearances for Wolves after joining from Anderlecht, initially on-loan in 2018 and permanently a year later.

His sale could persuade Aston Villa to accept an improved bid from Arsenal for midfielder Douglas Luiz.
