Aston Villa have completed the signing of Joao Gomes from rivals Wolves.

Villa have paid a fee of around £38m for the Brazil midfielder, who has been capped ten times by his country.

The 25-year-old’s arrival comes after the departure of Youri Tielemans to Manchester United, while Amadou Onana is set to miss the majority of next season with a knee injury.

Villa have also added midfielder Johan Manzambi to Unai Emery’s squad this summer, and will now turn their attentions to bringing in attacking reinforcements with
