Wolves have completed yet another signing, with Ladislav Krejci joining the pack from Girona on an initial loan deal.
The 26-year-old centre-back will complete a permanent move for £26m until 2030 once certain clauses have been met.
The Czech Republic international spent five years at Sparta Prague where he won two league titles. He moved to Girona last summer, making 36 appearances and only surviving the league by one point.
Krejci made his senior Czech debut in March 2022 against Poland and made his mark after he scored the fastest goal in Czech Republic history.
Standing at 6ft 3, Krejci can also play in the midfield offering more options for squad depth; something Wolves lack severely.
During his time at Sparta Prague, Krejci scored 44 goals for the club. Although he only managed to score two goals last season for the Spanish club, he will be looking to impress as he makes the move to the Premier League.
“I’m very, very excited. Even the first day, it’s very exciting for me to see how to staff are working and everything around, the first view of the club. It's very beautiful, very amazing. So, I cannot wait for it," said the 26-year-old.
"The talks were last week," continued Krejci. "They made a big impact and were very interesting for me, because the coach said he was excited from last year, from last season. He showed me and told me some basics of what he wants from the team and from myself.
"The first things were very interesting, and I'm looking forward to meeting him as a person, to working with him and building myself as a professional. It's interesting that we met in pre-season. I didn't know anyone personally but it's good. Now, I cannot wait to meet them on the pitch as teammates.
"It’s exciting, the biggest league in the world, a big achievement for myself, it’s a dream. So, I'm very glad for this opportunity from the club and from everyone who is involved in this and has put their faith in me, and I hope I will give it back.”
The 26-year-old played against Wolves at the Estadi Montilivi during pre-season and started both of Girona’s opening two La Liga fixtures.
There is chance that Krejci could feature for Wolves in their next game as they face Everton at home on Saturday.
Krejci has the potential to offer a lot to Wolves as they will be doing everything they can to avoid the drop this season.
