Wolverhampton Wanderers sign youngster Jed Wallace from Portsmouth

Portsmouth midfielder Jed Wallace signs a three-year deal at Molineux to become Wolverhampton Wanderers' first summer signing.

Wolverhampton Wanderers manager Kenny Jackett has begun strengthening his squad ahead of next season by recruiting Portsmouth midfielder Jed Wallace.

The 21-year-old, whose impressive performances this campaign saw him recently named in the PFA League Two Team of the Year, has passed a medical and agreed a three-year contract at Molineux.

Wallace broke into the Pompey ranks in January 2013, going on to establish himself as a key player by scoring 24 goals in 121 appearances since then.

"We are delighted to have completed a deal to sign Jed," Jackett said upon completing his first summer signing.

"He is a young player with a very bright future who has played a lot of football for a 21-year-old and is now ready to make the step up to the Championship. I am looking forward to working with him in the new season."

Wallace has been capped on one occasion at Under-19s level for England.
