The Ivory Coast international became the head coach's first Wolves signing in a deal from Reims worth up to €20million, roughly £16.6million, signing a four-and-a-half year deal with the option to extend it by a further 12 months.

Agbadou is likely to be Wolves' biggest signing of the window, but they are targeting another defender with Chelsea's Renato Veiga one they are interested in, and they could move for a midfielder depending on the potential departure of Mario Lemina.

After sealing the deal for Agbadou, Pereira is pleased with the attributes he will bring to Wolves as they bid to avoid the drop.
