Wolves quids in on Roger Johnson and Jamie O'Hara deals

Wolves' hardball approach on transfers has been rewarded after the club secured top signings Roger Johnson and Jamie O'Hara on cut-price deals, it has emerged.

The club paid just over £4m to Birmingham for Johnson for a flat fee with no add-ons.

That figure is nowhere near the £7m 'confirmed' by Blues at the time, or the £6.4m that was widely quoted in the days after the deal was completed.

Midfielder O'Hara cost them £3.5m, well below the £5m reported when he signed from Tottenham.

Reports suggested Blues had initially wanted staggering £14m for Johnson before dropping their price to £10m then £9m.
