Aston Villa have completed the £38m signing of midfielder Joao Gomes from Wolves.
The Brazil international joins for an initial £34m with £4m in add-ons.
Villa completed a club record deal worth more than £50m for Freiburg midfielder Johan Manzambi on Friday, beating Newcastle to the Switzerland international.
Atletico Madrid had also been keen on Gomes, but the 25-year-old left Wolves’ training camp in Portugal on Thursday to have a medical and finalise his move to Villa Park.
Villa have also sold Youri Tielemans to Manchester United for £35m, while fellow midfielder Morgan Rogers is set to leave after a £117m deal was agreed with Chelsea.
Gomes made 41 appearances for Wolves last season and was named Player of the Year as they finished bottom of the Premier League.
