Cameroon defender Jackson Tchatchoua, hailed as the fastest player in Serie A last season, has joined Premier League Wolverhampton Wanderers from Italian side Hellas Verona on a five-year deal.
Wolves said the deal for the Belgium-born right wing-back included a 12-month option.
No financial details were given but the BBC put a €12.5 million price tag on the signing.
“In Italy, you have a lot of exertions, because every match is difficult. I think it’s a good step before the Premier League."

Tchatchoua was recorded hitting a speed of 36.3kph last season, according to the club, and scored two goals with three assists.
The 23-year-old is Wolves' fourth new signing of the transfer window.
"The Premier League is one of my dreams and it's one step that I want to do in my life, and also the history of the club, the stadium, the fans, this convinced me," he said.
